South Africa on Saturday scripted history and won its first-ever ICC T20 World Cricket World Cup by defeating India by___ runs. India vs South Africa T20 World Cup Final 2024 went underway at Kensington Oval in Barbados. Chasing a target of 177 runs, South Africa's start was shaky with Reeza Hendricks getting dismissed on Jasprit Bumrah's 'ball of the tournament'. However, the ship was steadied by Tristian Stubbs and Quinton De Kock. While Stubbs hit 31 off 21 balls, QDK hit an important 39 off 31 balls.
However, it was Henrich Klaseen's fiery 52 off 27 balls that sealed the deal for the Proteas. This was India's second defeat in a World Cup final. On November 19, 2023, Australia defeated the Men In Blue in Ahmedabad at the 50-over World Cup. Now, in just a few months, Rohit Sharma & Co were defeated in the T20 World Cup 2024. This also marked the end of Rahul Dravid's coaching tenure with the Indian Cricket Team. Rohit Sharma & Co could not give Rahul Dravid a farewell on a winning note.
