The highly anticipated final of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024, will feature a thrilling showdown between South Africa and India. This grand finale is scheduled to take place at the historic Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, on June 29, commencing at 08:00 PM IST.
Former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly on Friday said Rohit Sharma's leadership qualities played a big hand in India's unbeaten run in the ongoing T20 World Cup, and urged the team to play with freedom in the final against South Africa to end a 11-year wait for an ICC trophy. India will face the Proteas in the title clash at Bridgetown, Barbados, and will be eyeing their first global trophy since winning the Champions Trophy in 2013. "I'm very happy for Rohit Sharma. Life comes full circle. Six months ago he was not even the captain of Mumbai Indians and the same man is now leading India to a World Cup final, unbeaten," Ganguly said after being roped in as the brand ambassador of Veedol.

Star India pacer Jasprit Bumrah became the second-highest wicket-taker for the Men in Blue in a single edition of the T20 World Cup. Bumrah displayed a stupendous performance against England in the semi-final match of the T20 World Cup 2024. Bumrah achieved the milestone after picking up two wickets against Jos Buttler's side. In the ongoing marquee event, Bumrah has 13 wickets for Team India. Meanwhile, India left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh is the highest wicket-taker for the Men in Blue in a single edition of the T20 World Cup. Against the Three Lions on Thursday, Arshdeep failed to pick any wickets in his two-over spells. The 25-year-old has 15 wickets in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024.
Former World Cup-winning captain Kapil Dev lauded Team India skipper Rohit Sharma's captaincy and said that the Men in Blue have done 'wonderfully well' in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 under the 37-year-old's leadership. The India skipper Rohit Sharma played a stupendous knock in the first inning of the semi-final match against England on Thursday. Rohit played a 57-run knock off 39 balls at a strike rate of 146.15. He smashed 6 fours and 2 sixes during his time on the crease. However, his knock had to come to an end in the 14th over when Adil Rashid dismissed him.
Virat Kohli got out on a single-digit score for the fifth time in the 2024 T20 World Cup, in India's semi-final against England in Guyana. Kohli made a run-a-ball 9 against England, a knock which took his tally to just 75 for the tournament in seven innings. After his dismissal, Kohli's disappointment was evident. A video went viral on social media, showing Kohli in a serious mood, and being consoled by Team India head coach Rahul Dravid. He was dismissed by his Royal Challengers Bangalore teammate in IPL 2024, Reece Topley.
Indian cricket fans on social media have gone crazy as Mahendra Singh Dhoni's new haircut has been revealed in public. Popular hair stylist Aalim Hakim shared a few pictures of MS Dhoni's latest cut on Instagram, with the post drawing over 50,000 likes in the first hour. Dhoni's long hairstyle, which he donned during IPL 2024, has made way for a shorter but more wavy version. The Chennai Super Kings star keeps his profile low outside of the IPL, but this has given MS Dhoni fans a chance to stay up to date with their idol.
India captain Rohit Sharma lavished praise on the gun spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel for the spectacle they produced in the semi-final of the ongoing T20 World Cup against England in Guyana. After Jos Buttler smacked away Arshdeep Singh for three boundaries in the third over, Axar Patel turned the tide on his first delivery of the match. Axar removed England captain Jos Buttler (23) by going away from his usual style of skidding the ball and decided to spin it. The English skipper tried to counterattack with a reverse sweep. He bottomed it straight to Rishabh Pant behind the stumps.
