Kohli's performance in the tournament was nothing short of legendary. Struggling initially, he managed only 75 runs in the first seven matches. However, in the crucial final, he delivered a match-winning knock of 76 runs off 59 balls, rescuing India from a precarious position of 34/3 and helping them post a competitive total of 176/7.
South Africa, needing just 30 runs from the last five overs, seemed poised for victory. However, India's seamers turned the tide with their exceptional bowling, securing a dramatic seven-run win and clinching their second T20 World Cup Trophy.
