    What's the story

    In an absolute thriller, Team India defeated South Africa by seven runs in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 final.

    The win helped India win their second T20 WC crown after 2007.

    Batting first, Virat Kohli's 76 helped India score 176/7. Axar Patel chipped in as well.

    Meanwhile, Jasprit Bumrah was named the Player of the Tournament. Here are the other award winners.

    POTM

    Virat Kohli - POTM in final

    Kohli stepped up just at the right time as he hammered a sensational 76 off 59 balls (6 fours, 2 sixes) in the final game.

    The veteran, who slowed down in the middle overs, upped the ante toward the end as India finished at 176/7.

    He was awarded with the Player-of-the-Match award in the final. This was his only fifty this season.

    Player of the Series - Jasprit Bumrah

    As mentioned, Bumrah was adjudged the Player of the Tournament for scalping 15 wickets at 8.27. His economy was a sensational 4.17. His best figures read 3/7.

    He was also brilliant in the high-voltage final, returning with 2/18 in four overs.

    Bumrah pulled out the victory for India from the jaws of defeat as SA needed just 30 runs in the last five overs.
