2007 T20 WORD CUP 🏆

India's historic win at the 2007 T20 World Cup

India, under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, defied expectations to win the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 in 2007, ushering in a new era for Indian cricket and the global rise of T20 cricket. 

Journey to the title

• Underdog Status: India entered the tournament without some key experienced players who opted out, leading to low expectations from a young squad led by a relatively unproven captain, MS Dhoni according to the Hindustan Times}.

• Early Tests and Resilience: India started with a thrilling bowl-out victory against arch-rivals Pakistan, setting a tone of resilience. This was followed by a loss to New Zealand in the Super 8s.

• Defining moments:

  • Dominant Performance against South Africa: India defeated the hosts South Africa comfortably in their final Super 8 match, showcasing their strong all-round performance, with notable contributions from Rohit Sharma (50 runs) and RP Singh (4 wickets).

  • Semi-final triumph over Australia: India showcased its batting prowess in the semi-final against a strong Australian side, propelled by a blistering 70 off 30 balls by Yuvraj Singh, securing a 15-run win and a spot in the final against Pakistan. 

The thrilling final

• India's Batting Effort: India batted first and posted a challenging total of 157 for 5, thanks to a gritty 75 from Gautam Gambhir and a vital 30 off 16 balls from Rohit Sharma.

• Pakistan's Chase: Pakistan's chase was anchored by Misbah-ul-Haq, who kept their hopes alive despite regular wicket losses. Misbah targeted Harbhajan Singh hitting him for three sixes in an over to bring the equation down to 13 runs needed off the last over.

• Joginder Sharma's Last Over: With 13 runs needed and one wicket in hand, MS Dhoni made the bold decision to give the final over to Joginder Sharma, an inexperienced bowler according to the Hindustan Times}. Joginder started nervously but dismissed Misbah-ul-Haq on the third legal delivery, with Sreesanth taking the crucial catch at short fine leg, sealing India's five-run victory. 

Significance of the win

• A New Era: The victory marked India's first global ICC title since the 1983 World Cup and ushered in a new era of T20 cricket dominance for India.

2011 Word cup 🏆

Dhoni's instructions and rationale during the 2011 Cricket World Cup final

MS Dhoni's decision to promote himself in the batting order ahead of Yuvraj Singh in the 2011 Cricket World Cup final against Sri Lanka was a pivotal moment in the match and has been widely discussed. Here's a detailed look at the context, Dhoni's instructions, and his reasoning: 

The context

• India was chasing 275 runs set by Sri Lanka.

• India had lost both openers, Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar, early in the innings.

• Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir built a crucial partnership, but Kohli was dismissed when the score was 114 for 3 in 21.4 overs.

• At this point, Yuvraj Singh, who was in excellent form and had been a standout performer throughout the tournament, was expected to bat next. 

Dhoni's instructions and rationale

Instead of sending in Yuvraj, MS Dhoni chose to bat at number five, which surprised many. The following is revealed about the instructions and reasoning behind this decision: 

1. Facing Muralitharan: Dhoni explained that the presence of three Sri Lankan off-spinners in the bowling attack, particularly Muttiah Muralitharan, was a key factor. Having played with Muralitharan and Suraj Randiv in the Chennai Super Kings, Dhoni felt he understood their bowling well and could handle them effectively, according to News18. Dhoni stated, "I have played him a lot in the CSK nets and I was confident that I will be able to score runs freely against him". Yuvraj Singh, being a left-handed batsman, was potentially less comfortable against off-spinners, especially Muralitharan, 

2. Maintaining a left-right combination: Some analyses suggest that Dhoni aimed to maintain a left-right batting combination at the crease to disrupt the bowlers' rhythm,. Having a right-handed Dhoni at the other end could have made it more challenging for the bowlers to settle into a consistent line and length,

3. Taking responsibility: Some commentators, like Paddy Upton, India's mental conditioning coach at the time, saw this as Dhoni's way of leading from the front and taking responsibility in a high-pressure situation. Dhoni had not been in the best batting form during the tournament, and some believed he wanted to prove himself and contribute significantly in the final, 

4. Trust with coach Gary Kirsten: The decision was made with little discussion with the then-coach, Gary Kirsten. According to Upton, Dhoni simply indicated to Kirsten that he would bat next, and Kirsten nodded in agreement, showcasing the strong trust between them, 

The result

Dhoni's decision proved to be a masterstroke. He went on to score an unbeaten 91 runs off 79 balls, guiding India to victory with a memorable six over long-on, securing the World Cup after 28 years. He was also awarded the Man of the Match for his outstanding performance. His innings, along with Gautam Gambhir's 97, shifted the momentum in India's favor and ultimately led to the historic win. 

2013 Champion Trophy🏆

The 2013 ICC Champions Trophy final between India and England, hosted at Edgbaston, Birmingham, on June 23, 2013, was a rain-marred thriller reduced to a 20-over-per-side affair. 

After winning the toss, England chose to field first. India, despite a shaky start and losing early wickets including that of Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan, managed to post a challenging total of 129 runs for 7 wickets, thanks in large part to Virat Kohli's 43 and a crucial late cameo of 33 runs from 25 balls by Ravindra Jadeja. Ravi Bopara was the pick of the bowlers for England, claiming three wickets. 

In response, England's chase began well, but a disciplined performance from the Indian bowlers kept them in the game. The turning point arrived in the 18th over when Ishant Sharma, who had been expensive, dramatically shifted the momentum by taking two crucial wickets in consecutive deliveries: Eoin Morgan and Ravi Bopara. 

With England needing 19 runs from 12 balls, the pressure mounted on the batsmen. Ravindra Jadeja then bowled out Jos Buttler, and a run-out further tightened India's grip. The final over was entrusted to Ravichandran Ashwin, with England needing 15 runs for victory. Despite a boundary from Stuart Broad, Ashwin held his nerve, . With 6 runs required off the final ball, James Tredwell failed to make contact, and India secured a thrilling 5-run victory. MS Dhoni, the Indian captain, famously leapt in celebration as the team erupted in joy. 

This victory marked India's second Champions Trophy title and was particularly special as it was the first time they won it individually (they shared the 2002 trophy with Sri Lanka). MS Dhoni also made history by becoming the first captain to win all three major ICC trophies: the T20 World Cup (2007), the ODI World Cup (2011), and the Champions Trophy (2013). Ravindra Jadeja, who took 2 wickets and scored 33 runs, was awarded the Player of the Match. 

2024 T20 Word Cup 🏆

India won the 2024 T20 World Cup, defeating South Africa by 7 runs in a thrilling final. The victory, which took place at Kensington Oval in Barbados, ended India's 11-year drought for an ICC trophy and was particularly emotional as it marked the retirement of several key players from T20 internationals, including Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravindra Jadeja. The match was a tense affair, with India's total of 176/7 proving just enough to hold off South Africa's chase. 

Here's a more detailed look at the winning moment:

• India's Performance:
  India's batting was anchored by Virat Kohli's 76 runs, which helped them set a competitive target. 

• South Africa's Challenge:
  South Africa fought hard, with David Miller contributing a crucial 43 runs, but ultimately fell short. 

• Key Contributions:
  Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya were instrumental in India's bowling attack, taking key wickets. 

• Emotional Farewell:
  The victory was made even more significant as it was the last T20 international for several Indian players, including Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who retired from the format immediately after the win. 

• Significance:
  The win ended a long wait for an ICC trophy for India, and it was seen as a moment of great pride and joy for the team and the nation.
