Rishabh Pant's act did not go unnoticed by fans as former India head coach Ravi Shastri had applauded it as well

Former Team India T20I captain Rohit Sharma opened up about what transpired towards the end of the 2024 T20 World Cup summit clash between India and South Africa on The Great Indian Kapil Show.

Rohit Sharma has revealed Rishabh Pant had used a clever tactic during the final against South Africa to slow down the game and break the momentum of the batting side.

Pant's strategy disrupted South Africa's momentum. Sharma detailed the tense moments of the final match when South Africa needed 26 runs from 24 balls with several set batters sti

"For us, winning the World Cup was the biggest goal for 3-4 months that we had to win it. After winning the World Cup, I felt alive again," he said.

Rohit Sharma credited Rishabh Pant for India's victory against South Africa in T20 World Cup 2024 final, but not for his batting or wicket-keeping.

The iconic Kensington Oval was the stage for this dramatic final where India faced off against South Africa. The match was a rollercoaster of emotions.

During Netflix's The Great Indian Kapil Show, Rohit Sharma discussed Rishabh Pant's ‘clever move’ as a key factor in India's T20 World Cup 2024 win, disrupting South Africa's momentum.

Jemimah Rodrigues said the desire and passion to win the women's edition was reignited after the men's team lifted the T20 World Cup title earlier this year.

India ended their 11-year-old drought of an ICC title earlier this year when they beat South Africa in the T20 World Cup final in Barbados. India became the first team in the history to go on to lift the trophy undefeated.

Recalling India's T20 World Cup 2024 final against South Africa, the very first thing that comes to a common mind were Jasprit Bumrah's spell in the last five overs, Suryakumar Yadav's spectacular catch to dismiss David Miller and Hardik Pandya's brilliant final over heroics.
