India triumphed over South Africa by seven runs to win their second T20 World Cup, ending an 11-year drought for a global trophy. Virat Kohli's vital 76 off 59 balls helped set a competitive total, while Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh's exceptional bowling restricted South Africa to 169 for eight. Heinrich Klaasen's rapid 52 put South Africa in a strong position, but key wickets by Hardik Pandya and tight death bowling sealed India's victory. This win follows India's dominant performance in the semi-final against England, where they secured a 68-run victory, with Bumrah and Axar Patel leading the bowling attack. Despite early setbacks, India's composure and strategic play under pressure were pivotal in their World Cup success.
