Rohit Sharma Reveals SKY’s T20 World Cup 2024 Winning Catch Moment

On June 29, India won the T20 World Cup 2024. 1 year has passed. One of cricket's most memorable moments will be Suryakumar Yadav's incredible catch at the T20 World Cup final in Barbados on June 29, 2024. 

In an important moment that turned the tide in India's favor, Surya, who was positioned at long-off, ran, leaped, and prevented the ball from reaching the boundary. However, India's captain, Rohit Sharma, whose reaction was caught on camera, added emotional depth to the performance beyond Surya's skill.

India beat South Africa by 7 runs in the T20 World Cup 2024 final on June 29, 2024, and left the India won the T20 World Cup 2024 after 17 years, the last was 2007 under MS Dhoni's captaincy against Pakistan.
 

Rohit's Raw Emotion 

From a long-range viewpoint, Rohit first dropped to one knee when he watched David Miller's shot rising, possibly meaning a six. Pure excitement was evident in that tense, nearly-acceptance moment before the catch. He later said, "To be honest, it was the moment of the match… everyone's heart was in their mouth," showing how nearly the game—and the trophy—were lost.

Heart in His Mouth

When the ball struck Surya's glove—it was unclear if his foot touched the rope—the strain increased. Mid-check, Rohit turned to face Surya and posed the crucial query, "Did you catch it?" Everyone felt better by Surya's cool response, "I think I've caught it," and the zoom footage that showed no contact with the rope. However, Rohit said that his anxiety stayed until the big screen's "OUT" flashed.
