India skipper Rohit Sharma’s mother Purnima posted an edited image of his son along with Virat Kohli as Team India won the T20 World Cup 2024. The Men in Blue defeated South Africa in the final to lift their second-ever T20 title in history. 

India under the leadership of Rohit Sharma was nothing short of exceptional in the T20 World Cup 2024. The opening batter was the shining light for his team both as a leader as well as the batter in the tournament and showed the path to the team. 

Rohit Sharma led from the front with the bat as he ended the tournament as the leading run-getter with 257 runs to his name. He guided the team pretty well and batted aggressively, making sure that the team got off to a flying start in almost every game of the tournament. 

On the leadership front, Rohit Sharma was on the top of the game with his tactics. The opening batter was spot in with his bowling changes and field placements not only in one game but the entire tournament. All his hard work finally paid off as India lifted the T20 World Cup after many years. 

Virat Kohli on the other hand wasn’t at his best in the tournament till the final but his presence in the team was sensational. But when it mattered the most, he stood tall for his team and played a match-winning knock of 76 runs in the final, helping his team post a fighting total on the board. 

Both Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma finally had their hands on the ICC title. The duo has been an incredible servant for the team for more than the last decade. With the way they have been playing for the team, they deserved the trophy. 

After India won the T20 World Cup 2024, both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were in tears and were quite emotional as well. The duo then took pictures together as well with the trophy which went viral on the internet and was loved by many.
