BROOK AND ENGLAND BELIEVE AHEAD OF INDIA SEMI-FINAL Good Morning Nagpur
England captain Harry Brook believes his side's best performance at
the ongoing ICC Men's T 20 World Cup 2026 may still be ahead of them
as they prepare for a blockbuster semi-final against India in Mumbai.

Speaking on the eve of the clash, Brook admitted that while England
have found ways to win throughout the tournament, the team is yet to
deliver a "perfect" performance, something he hopes could arrive at
the most crucial moment.

"It's a dream come true for most of us to play in a World Cup semi-
final against the home nation on a very iconic ground," Brook said.
"We're all really looking forward to it."

While Brook acknowledged India's status as favourites on home soil,
the England captain insisted his side will approach the contest with
confidence and freedom.

"We're obviously going into the game very confident. We're playing
some good cricket," he said.

"We haven't quite played that perfect performance and I feel like it's
just around the corner. Hopefully it's tomorrow night and we go out
there, play with freedom and be brave."

England's path to the semi-finals has been defined by resilience. On
several occasions they have clawed their way back from difficult
situations to secure victories, including dramatic finishes against Nepal
and Pakistan, while also showing composure in a tense chase against
New Zealand to remain unbeaten in the Super 8 stage.

Brook believes those experiences have strengthened the team's belief
heading into the knockout stages.

"We've won them tight games which in World Cups is very important,"
he said. "It feels like we've never really been out of any game so far and
that holds you in good stead in these world competitions."
