The T20 World Cup 2024, being hosted in the West Indies and the USA, continues to deliver stunning performances! On Sunday, Team India defended a score of 119 against Pakistan, only for South Africa to break that record within 24 hours.

Bangladesh, chasing 114, could only manage 109/7 in their 20 overs. The match was a nail-biter until the very end, with Bangladesh needing 6 runs off the final ball. Taskin Ahmed, at the crease, could only score 1 run, sealing South Africa’s historic win. Heinrich Klaasen, with a crucial 46 runs, was named the 'Player of the Match'.
