India won the T20 World Cup after defeating South Africa with 7 Runs

17 years after winning the 1st T20 World Cup, 13 years after winning their 2nd ODI World Cup, and after 2 heartbreaking losses in the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup finals in 2023, India finally ended their title drought, edging out South Africa by 7 runs in a thriller that went down to the last over.

Following Virat Kohli’s retirement announcement, India captain Rohit Sharma has also announced that he has retired from the T20 international format following the final match between India and South Africa. Rohit, who played 159 T20 internationals, ended his career on a high after leading his team to only their second T20 World Cup trophy on Saturday.
