India clinched the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, ending an 11-year wait for an ICC title. On June 29, 2024, at Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, the Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team triumphed over South Africa in a thrilling final, winning by seven runs. This victory marked India’s return to the top of international cricket after more than a decade.

ICC T20, Virat Kohli played a pivotal role with the bat, scoring a resilient 76 runs despite India losing three early wickets. Axar Patel contributed a quickfire 47 runs, helping India post a competitive total of 176/7 in their innings.

In response, the Men in Blue bowled tightly and managed to restrict South Africa to 169/8. Hardik Pandya’s superb bowling in the final over, defending 16 runs, was crucial in sealing the win. Another defining moment was Suryakumar Yadav’s stunning catch near the boundary to dismiss David Miller, which shifted the momentum firmly in India’s favor.

This memorable victory not only brought the coveted trophy back to India but also showcased the team’s resilience, skill, and fighting spirit on the world stage.
