Brilliant effort by Chanderpaul and Sarwan. 80 from nine overs was a fairly facile target, though their younger guys at the top of the order did lose their heads. Sarwan and Chanderpaul showed all their experience, knocking them off with ease. So there ends England's tumultuous World Twenty20 and they join the likes of India and Australia in the losers' camp, while West Indies are now sat happily in the semis. You couldn't make it up, honestly. We'll be back tomorrow with New Zealand's crunch match against Sri Lanka - do join us then.

Sidebottom to Sarwan, FOUR, smashed over extra cover and West Indies are into the semi-finals!

West Indies are already celebrating in the dug-out

8.1
1
Sidebottom to Chanderpaul, 1 run, full toss, banged through midwicket to Morgan, the substitute fielder for Rashid

Foster's standing up. Pietersen's made a suggestion to Collingwood. Everyone's chipping in. Here we go:

Sidebottom to bowl the final over with 3 to win. He has nothing to play with, but Collingwood is in deep discussion nevertheless. Hopeless task really. Anderson's wading in. Here we go: 3 from 6

END OF OVER:
8 | 13 Runs | WI: 77/5 (4 runs required from 6 balls, RR: 9.62, RRR: 4.00)

Broad to Chanderpaul, 1 run, on his legs and he steals the strike with a single to a deep mid-on

So then. 4 from 7. One hit will do it. Here we go...

7.5

Broad to Chanderpaul, FOUR, a full toss on his legs and that's four, and undoubtedly the match! Clips it quite square and Rashid, very fine at fine-leg, hasn't a hope. West Indies have one foot in the semis!

8 from 8. England are sinking here

7.4
2
Broad to Chanderpaul, 2 runs, shorter delivery and pulls this into the gap at midwicket - again for two. Very good placement indeed. This pair are so experienced, they've been around forever and have showed such calm sense

10 needed from 9

7.3
2
Broad to Chanderpaul, 2 runs, carved out past Sidebottom at backward point, and they get two

Around the wicket. 12 from 10. Easy.
