The final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 will be played as South Africa vs Team India. This is the third time that Team India has reached the World Cup final and South Africa for the first time. Aiden Markram will lead South Africa. This is the first time in the history of the T20 World Cup that Team India has reached the final round under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. Team India last won the ICC Trophy in 2013 and the T20 World Cup in 2007. In such a situation, Team India has a double chance to win the T20 World Cup after 17 years and the ICC Trophy after 11 years. Captain Rohit has batted brilliantly in this T20 World Cup so far. Similar explosive batting is expected from Rohit in the final match as well. Rohit has a chance to create history by breaking a big record in the final.
Rohit Sharma has a chance to break the record of most runs in the T20 World Cup tournament. Rohit needs only 34 runs for this record. The record of scoring the most runs in this World Cup tournament is in the name of Afghanistan batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who has scored 281 runs. Australia’s Travis Head is in second place with 255 runs. While Rohit Sharma is in third place with 248 runs. So now Rohit needs 34 runs to make this great record in his name. Now cricket fans will keep an eye on how Rohit performs against South Africa.
Meanwhile, apart from Rohit, Team India’s Suryakumar Yadav is also included in the list of top 10 batsmen who scored the most runs in this year’s T20 World Cup 2024 tournament. Surya is at the ninth position with 196 runs. South Africa’s Quinton de Kock is the only batsman. Quinton has scored 204 runs.
