India has now joined West Indies and England as one of the few teams to secure two men’s T20 World Cup titles.
- India made history by winning the men’s T20 World Cup without losing a single match throughout the tournament. They won all eight of their games and had one match canceled due to rain against Canada. India’s eight consecutive wins in completed matches equal the longest winning streak in men’s T20 World Cup history. Previously, Australia achieved this feat across the 2022 and 2024 editions, while South Africa also had an eight-match winning streak before their recent defeat.
- In finals where the toss was won, teams have an 8-1 record in favor of the toss winner at the men’s T20 World Cup. The only exception was Sri Lanka, who lost the final despite winning the toss against Pakistan in 2009. India in 2007 and West Indies in 2012 are the only teams to have won the final defending a total.
- Rohit Sharma joined the elite group of players who have won two men’s T20 World Cup finals with India’s recent victory. Eight West Indies players—Daren Sammy, Marlon Samuels, Chris Gayle, Johnson Charles, Dwayne Bravo, Samuel Badree, Andre Russell, and Denesh Ramdin—have also achieved this milestone.
- India set a record with 176 runs for 7 wickets against South Africa in the men’s T20 World Cup final, the highest total achieved in such a final. Previously, Australia’s chase of 173 runs for 2 wickets against New Zealand in 2021 held the record. The total of 345 runs scored in Bridgetown ties as the highest aggregate for any men’s T20 World Cup final.
- Heinrich Klaasen reached his fifty off just 23 balls against India, marking the fastest fifty in any men’s World Cup final. The previous record was held by Mitchell Marsh, who reached fifty in 31 balls against New Zealand in the 2021 T20 World Cup final.
- South Africa needed 30 runs from 177 at the start of the 16th over with six wickets in hand, representing 16.95% of their target. This is the second-lowest percentage any team has failed to chase in the last five overs (16-20) of a men’s T20I match, where detailed ball-by-ball data is available.
- In a similar scenario, New Zealand required 15.06% of their target at the start of the 16th over, chasing 166 against South Africa in 2012. They fell short by three runs, finishing at 162 for 7.
- Virat Kohli holds the record for the most Player-of-the-Match awards in men’s T20Is with 16 awards. Eight of these awards were earned during the men’s T20 World Cup, surpassing the record of five held by any other player, including Suryakumar Yadav with 15 awards.
- Rohit Sharma, at 37 years and 60 days old on Saturday, became the oldest captain to win a T20 World Cup. He is second only to Imran Khan, who was 39 years and 172 days old when Pakistan won the 1992 ODI World Cup.
- As captain, Rohit boasts an impressive 8-0 record in T20 finals—six with Mumbai Indians and two with India. Only MS Dhoni has more T20 final wins as captain, with nine out of 15. Rohit has been part of the winning side in 11 out of 12 T20 finals he’s played. Only Dwayne Bravo (17 wins), Kieron Pollard (16), and Shoaib Malik (15) have more T20 final victories.
- Rohit has led India to 49 wins out of 62 T20Is, the most by any captain in men’s T20Is, surpassing Babar Azam’s 48 wins. Under Rohit’s captaincy, India has lost only 12 T20Is, with one game ending in a tie that India won in the Super Over.
- Alongside Virat Kohli, Rohit is one of only two players to have been part of the winning team in the finals of all three ICC white-ball events (ODI World Cup, T20 World Cup, and Champions Trophy). MS Dhoni was the first to achieve this feat, doing so as captain.
