of the title win Delhi: The Indian cricket team has created history by winning the ICC T20 World Cup after 17 years. After 2007, Team India won this title in 2024 under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. This feat was achieved under the leadership of Rohit after the great wicketkeeper batsman Mahendra Singh Dhoni, but after this victory, the pain of former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has come to the fore. Ganguly says that he also contributed to this victory, but he is not getting credit for it.

After 2007, India reached the final of the T20 World Cup in 2014, but could not win the title. Even then, Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the captain. After this, the team did not reach the final. This shortcoming was fulfilled in 2024 under Rohit's captaincy and the title was also won
taken.

Ganguly said that Team India became the world champion under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, whom he had decided to make the captain. Ganguly said that when he was the BCCI President, he made Rohit the captain, but he had to face a lot of criticism. Now, when Team India has become the champion, he is not getting the credit.

Talking to Bengali newspaper 'Aajkal', Ganguly said, “When I handed over the captaincy to Rohit, I was criticized, but now that we have won the trophy, no one is abusing me. Everyone has forgotten that I made Rohit the captain.”

Rohit retired from T20 International cricket after winning the title

It is worth noting that Ganguly made Rohit the captain after Virat Kohli resigned and appointed Rahul Dravid as the head coach after Ravi Shastri's tenure ended. Rahul Dravid bid farewell by making the team a champion. After the World Cup, Rohit Sharma has announced his retirement from T20 International and Rahul Dravid has decided not to extend his coaching tenure. Gautam Gambhir has been appointed as the new coach.
