India coach Ravi Shastri says his players are physically and mentally drained as the pre-tournament favourites ended their disappointing T20 World Cup campaign with a nine-wicket consolation win over Namibia.

India chased 133 with Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul both making half-centuries.

Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin took 3-16 and 3-20 in Namibia's 132-8.

India were unable to reach the semis after defeats to Pakistan and New Zealand in their first two games.

In semi-final matches, England will take on New Zealand at 2am on Thursday while Pakistan faces Australia at 2am on Friday.
