Australia secured a spot in the T20 World Cup semi-finals as David Warner produced a feisty unbeaten 89 in the team’s eight-wicket win over West Indies and later England did a huge favour to them by breaching the 131-run mark in the other Group 1 match against South Africa.
Chasing 158, Australia rode on a 124-run second-wicket stand between Warner and Mitchell Marsh to romp home in 16.2 overs in Abu Dhabi and go level with Group 1 leaders England on eight points. Marsh, who hit 53 of 32 balls, got out to Chris Gayle who celebrated the wicket in what was his likely swansong in West Indies colours. Earlier, Josh Hazlewood took four wickets to keep West Indies down to 157 for seven despite skipper Kieron Pollard’s 44 in the Super 12 clash.
