Ahead of the India vs England clash in the semifinal of the T20 World Cup, former Indian wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik clashed with two of England's most well-known cricketers in a fierce battle of words. The following article briefs the tiff.
Several former cricketers, especially English legends like Nasser Hussain, had pointed out that India have been facilitated by the one-ground advantage, which led to their victory. The Indians had then protested, but did not have much to prove.
Dinesh Karthik calls out English cricketers
Dinesh Karthik, while mentioning Pakistan's failures despite having the advantage of playing on the same tracks throughout the tournament, called out the English greats Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain as the fossils.
"But clearly, it works for one team, and it doesn't for the other. So there is a genuine lack of skills there. I backed Pakistan for fighting a lot more, but they didn't, having lost most of their games. They almost lost to Sri Lanka, which was mad, and then you hear this thing that they have been docked a penalty," Dinesh Karthik giggled.

Does England have an advantage over India at the Wankhede?
England does have a marginal advantage over the home side at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium. This is not because England played their two opening matches of this World Cup at the same venue, but due to other reasons.
Equally evident was England's spinners ruling the slow pitch at the R.Premadasa Stadium against the New Zealand big-hitting batters. Moreover, England have played all their Super-8 games in Sri Lanka, which offered the slowest of tracks to bat on. Harry Brook and Will Jacks made runs on such tracks, and hence, they would not be up with a reserved mentality in the semi-final.
