Virat Kohli led the way with the bat on the big stage with a brilliant 76(59) to help India post a competitive 176/7. Kohli was ably supported by Axar Patel (47 off 31) and Shivam Dube (27 off 16) with crucial contributions. Defending the target, Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh provided the perfect start with early wickets of Reeza Hendricks and Aiden Markram, respectively. South Africa then clawed their way back into the match courtesy of Quinton de Kock, Tristan Stubbs, Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller. With 26 needed off 24, Hardik Pandya, Bumrah and Arshdeep scripted a sensational comeback as Pandya defended 16 off the last over, which saw Suryakumar Yadav pull off a spectacular catch on the fence to dismiss Miller, to pull off a sensational win and give a perfect farewell gift to Head Coach Rahul Dravid. Kohli was named the Player of the Match, while Bumrah was named the Player of the Tournament for his splendid bowling right through the tournament, finishing as the joint-second highest wicket-taker with 15 wickets, with an excellent average and economy rate of 8.26 and 4.17, respectively.
