T20 World Cup 2024 Memory: June 29 has become a historic day in Indian cricket history. Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Team India defeated South Africa in the final to win the 2024 T20 World Cup. This was India’s win after 17 years. On completion of one year of this historic moment, Rohit Sharma shared an emotional video.
First ICC Trophy as captain
This was Rohit Sharma’s first ICC Trophy as captain. India won an ICC Trophy after 13 years. The importance of this victory increases even more because a year ago, Team India lost the final of the ODI World Cup in the house, which broke the heart of both the player and the fans. The victory, held on 29 June 2024, gave the opportunity to forget the grief of that defeat.
Everything was in luck
Rohit Sharma said in the video, “This is very special for me because I was the captain of this team. This victory has made the whole country happy. All this was written, all this was in luck.” In this video, he showed memorable moments of the final, in which he is standing with the trophy with Virat Kohli and the rest of the players. Hardik Pandya has tears in his eyes, and Rohit is seen hugging him. In a photo, Rohit also has tears in his eyes, which are telling the feelings of victory.
Rohit Sharma has won a total of 4 ICC Trophy so far
Recalling that memorable day in a conversation with Star Sports, Rohit Sharma said that when Suryakumar Yadav took a great cat on the boundary and then it was being investigated, all were in great tension. Rohit said, “I asked Surya that the catch was taken correctly, so he said yes, but then I heard whether the address was taken correctly or not. Finally the third umpire gave him out.” Rohit Sharma has won a total of 4 ICC Trophy so far. After the 2024 T20 World Cup, he also won the Champions Trophy in 2025. In addition, Rohit was also part of the 2007 T20 World Cup and the 2013 Champions Trophy winning team.
