Virat Kohli: The Indian team captured the T20 World Cup 2024 and also won the hearts of crores of fans. On July 4, all the players of the Indian team returned to India from the West Indies. A victory procession and felicitation ceremony was organized for the players of Team India at the Wankhede Stadium. During the event, Virat Kohli, in his conversation, described a player as the real hero of winning the final. He admitted that if this player had not brought India back, then perhaps Team India would not have become the world champion.

Virat Kohli gave credit to this player

  • Obviously, all the players performed brilliantly to make the Indian team the world champion.
    But Virat Kohli has given the credit of winning the final to Jasprit Bumrah.
  • Virat praised Jaspreet Bumrah in front of a packed Wankhede stadium. He admitted that it was Bumrah who brought the Indian team back.

We were lucky – Kohli

  • Calling Bumrah the real hero of the final, Kohli said,
  • “I am sure everyone in this stadium must have thought, is this final match going to slip away? I want everyone to applaud the player who has brought us back to the tournament time and again.
  • Many congratulations to Jasprit Bumrah. We are lucky that he plays for us.”
  • Let us tell you that the Indian team had given a target of 177 runs to South Africa in the final match. In response, Heinrich Klaasen's fast innings put the Indian team behind by 15 overs.
  • At that time, Jaspreet Bumrah took the ball and got the Indian team back by taking the wicket of dangerous South African batsman Marco Jansen.
