In a thrilling T20 World Cup final, India crushed New Zealand with an imposing target of 256 runs. The Indian innings were headlined by Sanju Samson's explosive 89 off 46 balls, supported by destructive half-centuries from Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan.
New Zealand's chase faltered early, losing key wickets as they reached 88 for five at the halfway mark. Tim Seifert's 52 off 26 balls was in vain as effective spells from Axar Patel and Jasprit Bumrah stunted New Zealand's progress.
New Zealand's decision to bowl first backfired, with India making a powerful start. Samson and Sharma's 98-run partnership in just over seven overs stunned the opponents, establishing a foundation that Kishan capitalized on to further India's momentum.
