Delhi: In the final match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, India defeated South Africa and won the trophy. After this victory, there was a great celebration all over India and a felicitation ceremony was organized for the players at the Wankhede Stadium. In this event, the team's veteran fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah gave a statement about his retirement. It is known that after winning the T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja have retired from T20 international cricket.

30-year-old Bumrah said, “My retirement is still far away. I have just started. Hopefully this journey will go a long way.” Bumrah bowled brilliantly in the T20 World Cup, giving runs at an economy of just 4.17 and dismissing 15 batsmen.

Meanwhile, Bumrah also made a statement about his son Angad. He said, “It was unreal. Usually, I don't feel short of words, but seeing my son, the emotions that came inside me were amazing. I never cry after a match, but that day I cried and cried two-three times.”

Bumrah gave India the title victory!

In the final match, when South Africa needed 30 runs to win in 30 balls, India's chances of victory looked slim. Then the ball was handed over to Bumrah and he bowled two of the last five overs, giving away just six runs and taking the wicket of Marco Jansen. Bumrah was named the Player of the Tournament for his impressive performance throughout the tournament.

This is a proud moment for the Indian team and their fans, as Team India has ended the long wait by winning an ICC trophy after 11 years. Earlier, the team in blue jersey had won the ICC Champions Trophy played in England in 2013. At that time, the captain of India was the great wicketkeeper batsman Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
