India shocked South Africa with a seven-run victory in the final of the ICC T20 World Cup, securing their second T20 World Cup title. After a rocky start, Virat Kohli and Axar Patel's partnership helped India to a competitive score of 176/7. South Africa fought hard with a quickfire half-century from Heinrich Klaasen, but excellent performances from Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah helped India secure the win and the title.
