ENGLAND'S reign as T20 world champions was ended in brutal style by India, with their batting hopelessly exposed in a 68-run semi-final defeat.
Eight months ago Jos Buttler's men held both white-ball crowns and, while this World Cup has been an improvement on the 50-over debacle last year, they were outclassed by a vastly superior side.
On an awkward slow and low turning pitch, India found their way to 171-7 before England were skittled for 103 in reply.
While India go to Barbados for tomorrow's final against South Africa, their beaten opponents head for home after a turbulent campaign.
Head coach Matthew Mott and captain Buttler arrived in the Caribbean with their jobs under scrutiny and, although reaching the last four showed progress of sorts, it ultimately ended in failure.
