Check out the names of players who won the IPL as well as T20 World Cup trophy in their very first attempt.
3 players who won both IPL and T20 World Cup trophies: The Indian cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, won the T20 World Cup title at Kensington Oval in Barbados on June 29. The thrilling 7-run win in the final against South Africa ended an 11-year ICC trophy drought.
T20 World Cup and IPL are two of the most prestigious cricket tournaments in the world. It is the dream of every modern-era cricketer to lift both the IPL trophy and the T20 World Cup trophy once.
However, not all players have been able to achieve this feat. Even the greatest players had to make several attempts to lift the double trophy. For example, Rohit Sharma won the T20 World Cup in his first attempt but it took him two seasons to win the IPL. MS Dhoni won the T20 World Cup in his first attempt but waited three seasons to lift the IPL trophy.
However, today we will talk about those 3 cricketers who have won both these trophies in their very first attempt. That is, they won the IPL as well as the T20 World Cup trophy in their very first attempt.
1. Sanju Samson
Sanju Samson has achieved an incredible feat in cricket history. The Kerala cricketer won the IPL in his debut season in 2012 without playing a single match against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
After that, 12 years later in the year 2024, Sanju Samson won the T20 World Cup trophy for Team India. The most special thing is that Samson was selected for the T20 World Cup tournament for the first time and he lifted the trophy in his very first tournament. However, he again got a chance to play in the warm-up match in this tournament.

Former West Indies all-rounder Sunil Narine is also included in this list. He made his debut in the T20 international format in the year 2012, and in the same year he won the T20 World Cup 2012 trophy with his team West Indies.
After that, Sunil Narayan got an IPL contract. KKR had tried their best to buy him in the auction. Sunil Narayan did not disappoint and took 24 wickets in that season.
