India celebrated a stunning victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup, edging out South Africa by seven runs in a thrilling final. This triumph marks India’s second T20 World Cup title.

Virat Kohli achieved a remarkable milestone by becoming the only player to feature in the winning Playing XI of all four major ICC Men’s events: the U19 World Cup in 2008, the Cricket World Cup in 2011, the Champions Trophy in 2013, and now the T20 World Cup in 2024.

Kohli played a pivotal role in the final, scoring an essential 76 runs off 59 balls, helping India reach a total of 176/7. This victory is particularly significant as it ends India’s long wait for an ICC trophy, the last one being the Champions Trophy in 2013. Kohli’s contribution is even more notable as he announced his retirement from T20 internationals after this match, concluding a stellar career spanning 125 matches.

The final was filled with excitement and tension. India set a challenging target of 177 runs and managed to hold South Africa back, ultimately securing victory by just seven runs. Hardik Pandya’s impressive bowling in the final overs was crucial in defending India’s total.

Fans and players alike celebrated this long-awaited victory. The win is a testament to the team’s resilience and skill, providing a fitting end to Virat Kohli’s remarkable T20 international career. This triumph has brought joy to millions of Indian cricket fans who had been waiting for an ICC victory for over a decade.
