England bowlers look to stifle India firepower in T20 semi-final

England's bowlers have helped cover for their batting team mates' patchy Twenty20 World Cup and will now face their biggest test against the firepower of India in Thursday's semi-final.

The challenge may be even greater for Jos Buttler's team, with express paceman Mark Wood joining number three batsman Dawid Malan as an injury doubt for the clash at Adelaide Oval. 

Barring a solid win over fellow semi-finalists New Zealand, England's trip to the last four has been a rocky one with a shock loss to Ireland, a washout against Australia and unimpressive wins over Afghanistan and Sri Lanka.
