India lifted the T20 World Cup title on Saturday, ending a 17-year wait. It was an emotional moment for the entire nation and especially for the players. Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, and Mohammed Siraj were seen with tears in their eyes. This victory was even more special as India was close to losing their third ICC tournament final in a year. However, they pulled off a thrilling seven-run win against South Africa in the T20 World Cup 2024 final.
After the match, Bollywood star Anushka Sharma, Virat Kohli’s wife, shared a touching post on social media. She wrote about their daughter’s concern for the players, wondering if they had someone to hug them after seeing them cry on TV. Anushka assured her daughter that the players were embraced by the love of 1.5 billion people. She praised the team’s phenomenal victory and legendary achievement.
In a surprising announcement, Virat Kohli declared his retirement from T20 internationals after the match. Kohli played a crucial role in the final, scoring a match-winning 76 off 59 balls. His innings included two sixes and six fours, helping India recover from a shaky start to post a formidable total of 176 for seven.
While receiving the Man of the Match award, an emotional Kohli confirmed it was his last T20 match for India. He expressed his satisfaction with the team’s achievement, emphasizing how much they wanted to win this World Cup. Kohli acknowledged it was time for the next generation to take over the T20 format and lead India to more victories. Kohli also reflected on the long wait for an ICC tournament win, highlighting the dedication of his teammate Rohit Sharma, who played in nine T20 World Cups. He expressed gratitude and relief, admitting that the magnitude of the victory would take time to sink in.
