With this victory, the team has ended the 11-year ICC title drought. Team India had earlier won the last ICC trophy in 2013 under the captaincy of MS Dhoni. The victory was not easy for Team India in Barbados against the African team. Aiden Markram’s team needed 30 runs to win in the last 30 balls. Deadly batsmen like Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller were present at the crease, who could have led the team to victory without playing the full 20 overs. Hardik Pandya then gave the team a big success by dismissing Klaasen in the 17th over. But even then victory was difficult for India, because David Miller was present at the crease. The last over of South Africa’s innings was bowled by Hardik Pandya, in which 16 runs were needed. Miller lost his wicket to Suryakumar Yadav on the very first ball of Hardik. Surya showed intelligence under pressure and took a brilliant catch and Team India had won the trophy. Surya took a stunning catch at long-off David Miller’s intention was to make the victory easy by hitting a big shot on the first ball of the last over. But Suryakumar Yadav stationed at long-off did not let this happen. Surya caught the ball near the boundary rope, and then immediately he had to leave the ball, because due to the momentum he went outside the rope. However, he immediately jumped and completed the catch. This catch of Suryakumar Yadav is one of the best catches in the history of ICC tournaments. Like Surya, Kapil Dev’s catch in the 1983 World Cup made India the world champion for the first time. Kapil Dev caught Vivian Richards’ catch in 1983 The final of the 1983 World Cup was played between India and West Indies. West Indies was chasing a target of 184 runs to win. Star batsman Vivian Richards (33) was taking the team close to victory. But then Richards was caught by Kapil Dev on Madan Lal’s ball and got out. Kapil Dev took a brilliant catch at mid-wicket, which helped India win the first World Cup and from where the golden era of Indian cricket began. Vivian Richards’ wicket gave a big blow to West Indies and the team was all out for 140 runs. A new chapter is starting in Indian cricket history after the victory in T20 World Cup 2024. Kapil Dev and Suryakumar Yadav will be remembered for centuries for their amazing fielding.
