West Indies will meet England in the final of the World Twenty20 on Sunday after stunning hosts India with a seven-wicket win in the semi-final.

India appeared to be coasting to victory following another half-century from star player Virat Kohli, but the hosts had not banked on late West Indies World T20 replacement Lendl Simmons taking charge with the bat, hitting 82 runs of 51 balls.

Here Andrew Binner looks at the healthy state of T20 cricket in the Caribbean, the role the IPL has played in the success and where defeat leaves India captain MS Dhoni.
