Jasprit Bumrah has been the most impressive player for India, showing his best card thus far. South Africa and India will face off in the T20 World Cup 2024 final on Saturday, June 29, at the Kensington Oval in Barbados. The Men in Blue are one win away from breaking their 2013 ICC trophy drought as they have gone undefeated throughout the competition.
Jasprit Bumrah emphasised the importance of Rohit to the team as captain prior to the decisive match.
In related news, Rohit, the opening batsman for India, is leading his team into the championship after winning their individual matches against Australia and England. Jasprit Bumrah continued, “The bowlers’ ability to execute themselves is made possible by the Hitman, and this has been a key component in the team’s success.”
“Rohit Sharma has excelled beyond belief. As you may recall from the last World Cup, he shown initiative, giving his players plenty of leeway to express themselves. At the appropriate moment, he talks about his personal experience during the game. In a video released by ICC, Jasprit Bumrah stated, “So yeah, it feels really great and I feel very happy playing under him and the confidence of the group is also very high.”
India wants to win the ICC Trophy in Barbados after an 11-year drought.
In 2007, Team India won the T20 World Cup for the first time. The group led by former India captain MS Dhoni went on to win the Champions Trophy in 2013 as well as the World Cup in 2011.
The Asian giants have failed to win the prized trophy since then. In its cricketing history, India has participated in 12 ICC finals, although they have only won four of them. Rain ruined the finals, but they still shared the 2002 Champions Trophy with Sri Lanka.
