In November 2021 as part of the 2024-2031 ICC men's hosts cycle, the ICC announced that the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup would be played in the United States and the West Indies. [1]

On 22 September 2023, the ICC released the venues that would host matches across the tournament, [2] with the Kensington Oval in Barbados named as the venue for the final. [3] On 5 January 2024, the ICC announced the tournament's schedule, with the final scheduled on 29 June. [4] This was the second T20 World Cup final played at the stadium, after the 2010 final. [5]

This was South Africa's maiden T20 World Cup final, [6] while it was India's third final, having been champions in 2007 and runners-up in 2014. [7] Both teams qualified for the final unbeaten, with neither of them losing a group stage, Super 8 or semi-final. [8] Before this match, India and South Africa had played each other six times in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, with India recording four wins (2007, 2010, 2012 and 2014) and South Africa winning two (2009 and 2022).

Aftermath

Post-match

This was India's second T20 World Cup victory after first win in 2007 and first win in a major ICC event in 11 years, with their previous win being the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy. [43] India became the first Asian country to win two ICC Men's T20 World Cups (2007 and 2024). [44] India also became the first team in T20 World Cup history to win the title undefeated throughout the tournament. [45] Rohit Sharma became the third Indian captain to win a major ICC event after Kapil Dev in 1983 and MS Dhoni in 2007, 2011 and 2013. [46]

India received $2.45 million and South Africa received $1.28 million in prize money from the ICC. [47] Following India's victory, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja announced their retirement from the T20I cricket. [48] Rahul Dravid's tenure as India's head coach came to an end after this tournament. [49]

Reaction

Suryakumar Yadav's took the catch of David Miller in the final with his left foot close to the boundary cushion. Action replays suggested that it was a fair and clean catch, as confirmed by the video umpire. [50] Subsequently, some netizens on social media made unverified speculation that his shoe might have flicked the boundary cushion, [51] before a new video showing the catch from a different angle dispelled the doubts and confirmed the catch's validity. [52] The catch was also widely likened to that of former Indian captain Kapil Dev in the 1983 Cricket World Cup final, where he took a running catch to dismiss West Indies' batsman Vivian Richards. [53]

South Africa faced criticism for choking in the closing phase of the match, as they were favoured to chase down the total comfortably at one stage. [54] [55] South Africa captain Aiden Markram admitted that the defeat was a tough pill to swallow and described it as a "gut-wrenching and bittersweet ending to a great campaign", but heaped praise on his teammates who had helped the team reach the final as one of only two unbeaten sides of the tournament. [56] [57]

Indian President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated team India on winning the tournament. [58] [59] The South African Government appreciated the South Africa team's efforts in a post on Twitter. [60]

Celebrations

The Parade in Mumbai
Celebrations in Hyderabad

Major cities in India celebrated the win late into the night. [61] [62] Indian supporters in various overseas locations also celebrated the win by hoisting Indian flags and setting off firecrackers. [63] Later, BCCI secretary Jay Shah announced a cash reward of ₹125 crore (US$14 million) for Team India for the win. [64] The Indian team's departure from Barbados was delayed by over two days due to Hurricane Beryl, which caused a shutdown of air traffic from the island. [65]

On 4 July 2024, the Indian team was greeted with a warm welcome by the fans as they landed in Delhi. [66] The players and support staff met with the Indian Prime Minister Modi at his residence in 7, Lok Kalyan Marg, New Delhi. [67] [68] They then flew to Mumbai, taking a 2-kilometre open bus ride from Nariman Point to the Wankhede Stadium, for which an estimated 300,000 fans gathered at the Marine Drive. [69] [70] At the Wankhede Stadium, the team was felicitated by the BCCI and a cheque of ₹125 crore (US$14 million) was handed over by Jay Shah and BCCI President Roger Binny. [71] [72]

Broadcasting

The final match was broadcast live in India on Star Sports, free-to-air broadcaster DD Sports and free on OTT platform Disney+ Hotstar. In South Africa the match was broadcast live on SuperSport.
