England are the favourites to win the T20 World Cup after sweeping aside India with a 10 wicket win in their semi-final.

Joss Butler's men are 1.728/11 to beat Pakistan 2.3811/8 in Sunday's final and the prospect of England becoming holders of the T20 World Cup and ODI World Cup is very much on.

Their victory over India, who started as favourites, was England's best performance by far at this tournament and one of their greatest ever in white ball cricket.

India scored 168-6, hitting 60 off the final four overs, before Buttler and Alex Hales chased down the total within 16 overs for the loss of no wicket.

It was the biggest opening partnership in England's T20 history

They will play Pakistan, who beat New Zealand against the odds on Tuesday, in the final on Sunday.

We'll have an in-depth preview from Ed Hawkins with his best bet.
