5 factors which could determine the result of the India-West Indies semi-final

How well Indian batsmen other than Virat Kohli play

India have depended primarily on Kohli so far

Team India has depended more on Virat Kohli in this edition of the T20 World Cup than the West Indies have done on Chris Gayle. On at least two occasions in the tournament, Kohli has almost single-handedly taken India to victory with a couple of brilliant knocks.

However, considering the importance of a semi-final clash, the Indians can least afford to depend on just one man to do the job for them. Apart from Kohli, the only other batsman who looks to be in decent form is skipper MS Dhoni. Everyone else seems to be struggling for form and it could be a big problem for India if either Kohli or Dhoni has an off day, the former more so.

At least one among Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina will have to step up and produce a good performance to ensure that the Indian team does not have to rely solely on Virat Kohli to produce the goods.
