Defending champions India sealed their progress to the Cricket World Cup quarter‑finals as they recorded a four‑wicket win over West Indies last night.
Chasing a modest target of 183, India's top‑order struggled due to poor shot selection before skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni's composed unbeaten innings of 45 helped them reach the target in 39.1 overs and ensure their fourth consecutive win in the tournament.
Today Pakistan will face South Africa at 1pm and Ireland will take on Zimbabwe at 1.30pm.
