Virat Kohli’s wife and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma took to social media and shared a lovely post for the Indian team after they won the T20 World Cup 2024.
India defeated South Africa in a crunch final at the Kensington Oval in Barbados on June 29 by 7 runs to end their decade-long drought of ICC trophy wins.
India had opted to bat first after Rohit Sharma won the toss and posted 176/7 in 20 overs. Virat Kohli (76), Axar Patel (47) and their 72-run partnership for 4th wicket was the crux of India’s total. Shivam Dube also scored a quick 30-odd runs.
In reply, Quinton de Kock (39) stood firm as South Africa’s wickets fell fast. Tristan Stubbs (31) and Heinrich Klaasen (52) brought South Africa back into the game, with Klaasen blasting Akshar Patel for 24 runs in the 15th over.
But then Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Arshdeep Singh bowled brilliantly, stifling South Africa’s bats, and India triumphed by 7 runs. Hardik Pandya took 3/20, while Arshdeep Singh and Jasprit Bumrah took 2 wickets each.
