Former and current Pakistani players joined in congratulating the Indian team for their remarkable victory in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
Rohit Sharma’s Team India emerged victorious against Aiden Markram’s South Africa in the final held in Barbados. This marked India’s return to the T20 World Cup final since finishing as runners-up in the 2014 edition in Bangladesh, where they lost to Sri Lanka.
Reflecting on past tournaments, India faced setbacks including a semifinal loss to eventual champions West Indies in 2016 and an early exit in the group stages in 2021. The 2022 edition under Rohit Sharma’s leadership saw another semifinal defeat, this time to eventual winners England, prompting a rethink in India’s T20I approach.
In this year’s T20 World Cup, led by Rohit Sharma, the Indian team showed a clear intent to play aggressively, marking a departure from previous approaches. Key decisions such as promoting Virat Kohli to open and Rishabh Pant to bat at number three proved instrumental in their success.
Rohit Sharma’s leadership and the standout performances of long-time Mumbai Indians teammate Jasprit Bumrah were pivotal. Bumrah’s exceptional bowling in the final, coupled with Kohli’s impactful batting, were decisive factors in India’s triumph after 17 years.
Following India’s momentous victory, fans and cricketing figures, including Pakistani players, took to social media to extend their congratulations.
