T20 World Cup 2024 Final: Stuart Broad’s Harsh ‘IPL’ Comment on Virat Kohli Sparks Buzz

Virat Kohli has had a challenging run in the ongoing 2024 T20 World Cup, scoring just 75 runs in seven innings, with two ducks and no half-centuries. Despite this, the former India captain is determined to seize what could be his last chance to win an ICC trophy.

India will face South Africa in the final on Saturday in Barbados. To build anticipation, the ICC posted a tribute to Kohli ahead of the big game. The ICC caption read, “The last jewel remains missing from the crown of the king. Virat Kohli is one step away from #T20WorldCup glory.” This highlighted the anticipation surrounding Kohli’s potential victory.

However, veteran England fast bowler Stuart Broad responded harshly to the ICC’s post. Following India’s win over England in the second semifinal, which avenged their loss in Adelaide in the 2022 T20 World Cup, Broad took a jab at Kohli’s long wait for a major trophy by commenting “IPL?” This comment referred to Kohli’s 17-year trophy drought in the Indian Premier League. Broad later deleted the post.
