India won the t20 world cup two legends goodbye for cricket
India won the world cup after 17 years
Despite South Africa’s efforts to shake off their past struggles, history repeated itself in their maiden T20 World Cup final appearance. India staged a remarkable comeback, led by Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah, to clinch their second T20 World Cup title.
India, batting first, faced early setbacks but recovered with Virat Kohli’s 59-ball 76, supported by Axar Patel (47) and Shivam Dube (27), reaching a total of 176/6. South Africa’s chase saw Tristan Stubbs and Quinton de Kock stabilizing the innings after early losses. Heinrich Klaasen’s aggressive 27-ball 52 put South Africa in a strong position. However, Bumrah, Pandya, and Arshdeep Singh’s tight bowling in the death overs restricted South Africa to 169/8, sealing a seven-run victory for India.
The match highlighted India’s resilience and strategic bowling, especially in the final overs, where their pacers made the crucial difference.
