India has achieved their highest-ever victory record in the men’s T20 World Cup 2024

India emerged victorious against Australia in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, securing a spot in the semi-finals and accomplishing their greatest achievement in the tournament’s history. Led by captain Rohit Sharma, India showcased an exceptional performance as he unleashed a remarkable innings of 92 runs off a mere 41 deliveries, ultimately leading the team to triumph. The bowlers then successfully sealed the victory, solidifying India’s remarkable feat.

India emerged victorious against Australia in their last Super 8 clash in Saint Lucia during the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, securing a spot in the semi-finals. This marks the fifth occasion out of nine editions where the inaugural champions have successfully reached the semi-finals in consecutive tournaments. The Indian team, known as the Men in Blue, will now face England as they strive to reach their third final. Meanwhile, Australia’s fate hinges on the outcomes of matches involving Afghanistan and Bangladesh. With this triumph, India not only topped Group 1 but also accomplished their best-ever performance in the T20 World Cup.

India and South Africa are the sole undefeated teams in the current T20 World Cup. South Africa made history by securing their 7th win in a single T20 World Cup edition, while India achieved their sixth victory, the highest for the Men in Blue in a single edition. India’s previous best record was five wins in the 2014 edition of the World T20, where they remained unbeaten throughout the competition but lost in the final match.

Most wins in a single T20 World Cup edition for a team

Sr No Team Match Win Year
1 Sri Lanka 6 2009
2 Australia 6 2010
3 Australia 6 2021
4 India 6 2024
5 South Africa 7 2024

India’s triumph has placed them on par with cricket powerhouses Australia and Sri Lanka, as they have all achieved the remarkable feat of securing six victories in a single edition of the T20 World Cup. Sri Lanka accomplished this in 2009, although they fell short in the final. Australia, on the other hand, managed to achieve this feat twice, in 2010 and most recently in 2021, where they were crowned T20 champions for the first time.

With India’s win, the three semi-finalists for the ongoing T20 World Cup have been confirmed, leaving three other teams vying for the remaining spot.

In the second semifinal of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Team India will face off against the reigning champions, England, at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Thursday, June 27. Both sides have shown remarkable performance leading up to the semifinal. India has maintained an undefeated streak throughout the tournament, whereas England has qualified despite their losses to Australia in the group stages and South Africa in the Super 8.

Pitch Report

The pitch at Providence cricket Stadium in Guyana is a sluggish one, demanding batters to put in extra effort to score runs. The initial movement of the new ball can be attributed to the surface’s freshness. However, it is the spinners who truly benefit from this wicket, extracting the most out of it.
