Barbados: India and South Africa are gearing up to face off in the final of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 here on Saturday.

In the final of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, the two unbeaten sides in the competition, India and South Africa, will face each other at Kensington Oval in Barbados today. 

South Africa is eyeing their first ICC title in cricket history, while India seeks to end an 11-year ICC title drought. An ICC trophy has eluded India for 11 years, and they haven't won a T20 World Cup since the inaugural edition in 2007. 

South Africa, on the other hand, has never advanced this far in any World Cup, having lost seven semifinals across ODIs and T20s.

The India vs South Africa match is also going to be an emotional affair for the fans as this could be the last time Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli play together in T20 Internationals and definitely the last time Rahul Dravid serves as India coach.
