Virat Kohli showcased his batting prowess in the T20 World Cup 2024 final, guiding India to a competitive total of 176/7 against South Africa at Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados. After an early setback with quick wickets, Kohli steadied the innings with a resilient 76 off 59 balls. His partnership with Axar Patel (47) was pivotal, but Patel's run-out hindered India's momentum. Despite losing Kohli to Marco Jansen's delivery in the penultimate over, India managed a challenging total. South Africa's bowlers, led by Keshav Maharaj and Kagiso Rabada, posed consistent threats throughout India's innings.
