The final match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was played between India and South Africa in Barbados. The Indian team won this match. Although at one time South Africa was in a very good position in this match, but in the last five overs the match came completely in India’s favor and they won it.
Let us tell you, in the 15th over of South Africa’s innings, Heinrich Klaasen hit a total of 24 runs in Akshar Patel’s over. After this over, South Africa needed 30 runs in the last five overs and apart from Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller was also present at the crease. Indian team captain Rohit Sharma revealed that when Klaasen was batting aggressively, his mind had completely stopped working. However, the Indian captain said that he asked his teammates to stay cool and after this the team won.
Rohit Sharma said during an event in Dallas, ‘Yes, I was completely blank. I could not understand what to do. However, at that time my entire focus was on winning this match. It was very important for all the players to remain calm so that we could play according to our plan.
The way we bowled when South Africa needed 30 runs in the last five overs was really amazing. We just had to focus on our work and not think about too many things. We did not hurry and that is why the team won.
