The ICC T20 World Cup 2024 is about to draw curtains and the most important match of the entire tournament is about to unfold. India will be locking horns with South Africa in the high-voltage and exciting finals on 29th June 2024.
The entire world will have their eyeballs on this showpiece event as both the teams fight it out for pride, prestige and glory. If the Indian cricket team lay their hands on the silverware, then we can expect bedlam inside the stadium in Barbados.
Such is the support and craze of the Indian cricket team. And coupled with the fact that this could possibly be Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s last ICC T20 World Cup tournament and sojourn.
All eyes will be on Virat Kohli as well. The all-time great of this format and in international cricket, hasn’t had an ideal World Cup. The ‘King’, as everyone fondly calls him, has had an abysmal sojourn in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 so far and has mustered only 75 runs in 7 innings with a poor average of 10.71.
But he is someone who loves challenges and is a big-match player. The stage is set for Virat Kohli to unleash his beast mode and to steer India to a victorious position.
South Africa would be keen on punching above their weight and would be giving their 120% to stop the Indian juggernaut, led by Rohit Sharma. Both India and South Africa have a 100%-win percentage in this tournament and would be keen on crossing the line.
