Rohit finished as the leading run scorer for India in the 20-team tournament, which was played across multiple venues in the West Indies and the USA.
After becoming the second Indian captain to win the T20 World Cup title, Rohit announced his retirement from T20Is. He finished his career with 4231 runs in 159 matches, which is a record for most runs scored by any batter in the shortest format of the game. In addition to that, Rohit also holds the record for hitting the most sixes in T20Is and is also the most successful captain in T20Is.
India’s win over South Africa in the final of the T20 World Cup 2024 was Rohit’s 50th win as captain in 62 T20Is.
