Team India captain Suryakumar Yadav, who returned to India after winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2026, was given a grand welcome in Mumbai. A large number of cricket fans greeted their champion captain at the airport. After leading India to a historic win, when he was asked how he felt being the champion captain, he replied simply, “Very good.”

Under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, Team India created history by winning the title of T20 World Cup 2026. This is India’s third T20 World Cup title and the special thing is that India has become the first team to win the T20 World Cup on its own soil. Suryakumar Yadav, who made his debut in international cricket in the year 2021 at the age of 30, gave this big achievement to Team India in the fifth year of his career.

Let us tell you, Suryakumar Yadav’s performance in the tournament was also excellent. He scored 242 runs in nine innings at an average of 30.25 and a strike rate of over 136 and finished tenth in the list of highest run-scorers in the tournament. During this period, his unbeaten inning of 84 runs played against America was special, in which he demonstrated brilliant batting.

Whereas, if we talk about the final match, New Zealand won the toss and decided to bowl first, but the Indian batsmen proved this decision wrong. Abhishek Sharma played a stormy innings of 52 runs in just 21 balls, which included six fours and three sixes. He along with Samson made an important partnership of 98 runs.

After this, Samson and Ishan Kishan also batted brilliantly. Ishan Kishan scored 54 runs in 25 balls, which included four fours and four sixes. The century partnership between the two put India in a strong position and the team crossed the 200-run mark in the 16th over itself.

In the end, Shivam Dubey played a quick inning of 26 not out in eight balls, which included three fours and two sixes. Thanks to his innings, India scored a huge score of 255/5 in 20 overs, which became the highest score in the history of T20 World Cup final. James Neesham took maximum three wickets for New Zealand.

The New Zealand team, which came to chase the target of 256 runs, did not have a good start. Indian bowlers performed brilliantly and took wickets continuously. Akshar Patel took 3 wickets while Jasprit Bumrah bowled lethally and took 4 wickets.

Let us tell you, New Zealand’s Tim Seifert played a quick inning of 52 runs in 26 balls, but the rest of the batsmen could not make a big partnership. Daryl Mitchell and captain Mitchell Santner did put up some fight, but the Kiwis could not last long against the Indian bowlers. The entire New Zealand team was bundled out for 159 runs and India won the match by a huge margin and won the title of T20 World Cup 2026.
