![KING KOHLI BIDS ADIEU TO T20IS - India are T20 WC champions again](https://cdn.magzter.com/1560517598/1719685643/articles/RemZbrHJl1719696259299/KING-KOHLI-BIDS-ADIEU-TO-T20IS-INDIA-ARE-T20-WC-CHAMPIONS-AGAIN.jpg)
A billion hearts raced on Saturday night as the Men in Blue showed purpose and punch to thump South Africa by seven runs and lift the ICC T20 World Cup in Barbados.
For India to script a triumph which has been awaited for so many years was indeed awesome where the tournament favourites came out smoking despite hiccups early on. What mattered in a big match like this was intent and staying cool. Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma and the tutelage of outgoing coach Rahul Dravid, this was a dream come true. Tears, joy, crackers being burst, at home, all happened on a magical night for India. This was the perfect gift for outgoing coach Rahul Dravid as well.
Kohli, who was part of 2011 ODI World Cup triumph, announced his retirement from the format immediately after the end of the match.
"It's time for the next generation to take over. It was an open secret and I would have announced it even if we would have lost," Kohli said.
In a nutshell, this is how it panned out. India scored 176 for 7 in 20 overs where Virat Kohli (76), Axar Patel (47) and Shivam Dube (27) contributed.
While replying, South Africa made 169 for 8. Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya shone with two wickets each. The catches taken were also world class.
