While Rohit Sharma failed to make an impact with the bat against South Africa in the 2024 T20 World Cup final, he punched out match-winning knocks against Australia in the Super Eight and against defending champions England in the semifinals.

India’s remarkable win marked their first T20 World Cup victory since 2007, first World Cup win (across all formats) since 2011, and first ICC title since lifting the 2013 Champions Trophy. The outcome also made Rohit Sharma only the third Indian skipper after Kapil Dev (1983) and MS Dhoni (2007 and 2011) to win a World Cup.
