India end the trophy drought after 10 years

Talking about the game, India registered a nail-biting win over South Africa in Barbados to clinch the T20 World Cup 2024 title. They won the game by six runs - thanks to terrific efforts from Indian pacers throughout the game.

India were losing when Heinrich Klaasen took 24 from Axar’s over, but the pacers pulled things back in the final four overs to bring India back into the game. They bowled economical overs and also picked wickets in tandem to put breaks on the scoring rate and surge the required run rate.

It piled pressure on South Africa, who crumbled under pressure to let India get back into the contest, who held their nerves under pressure to win the game. It was an all-round effort from the Indian team to end the trophy drought.

The emotions are high, and all the players were crying after winning the trophy, for they had worked really hard and deserved to be winning the trophy. The celebrations will run all night, for India deserved it after coming so close every time and failing to get over the line.
