After Saturday's T20 World Cup 2024 triumph, US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti thanked Team India. "That is an amazing victory! Posting on X, US envoy Eric Garcetti congratulated . India was praised earlier today by Ali Sabry, Sri Lanka's Minister of Foreign Affairs, for its superb performance under the circumstances. "Well done, India! While under intense scrutiny, the Sri Lankan minister of foreign affairs delivered a "masterful performance!" he said on his social media account X. India's incredible triumph was also lauded by Israel's ambassador to the country, Naor Gilon.

The "truly historic achievement" was the description given by Israeli envoy Gilon. "Indian Chak De" Spectacular victory at the #T20WorldCup2024! Congratulations to #TeamIndia! "A really remarkable accomplishment!," he wrote on X. India won their second ICC Twenty20 World Cup with a stunning seven-run victory over South Africa on Saturday in Barbados, capping up an intense and nail-biting encounter.

Once again, the Proteas of South Africa have left fans devastated because they still haven't won an ICC championship. India, meanwhile, have finally broken their trophy drought, which had lasted eleven years, by capturing the ICC title. Their last triumph had been the Champions Trophy in 2013. India has never before won the championship without losing a single match.

As the last over was bowled by Hardik, Suryakumar Yadav took a brilliant catch close to the boundary to claim the wicket of Miler. In the end, India prevailed by a razor-thin margin of 7 runs as Rabada was also bowled out, reducing South Africa to 169/8.
