The T20 World Cup 2024 triumph ended India’s 11-year-long wait for an ICC trophy. India did reach the T20 World Cup final in 2014 and qualified for the Champions Trophy final in 2017 but could not win any silverware. India even lost back-to-back Test Championship finals from 2021-23 and faced a defeat in the ODI World Cup final last year.
