In the final of the T20 World Cup 2024, inaugural winners India will look to lift their second title when they face first-time finalists South Africa at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados on Saturday (June 29).

Rohit Sharma-led India head into the match on the back of an undefeated run and are fresh from a 68-run win over England in their most recent outing, sealing their first final berth since 2014. India defended a total of 171 by bundling out England for 103 all out.

Aiden Markram’s South Africa, on the other end, also stretched their winning streak to eight following a clinical 9-wicket win over Afghanistan to boo their first-ever T20 World Cup final. South Africa chased down 57 inside 9 overs.

South Africa’s unbeaten run will face the toughest of tests against the favourites India as the two sides face off in the shortest format for the first time since December 2023. Here is a look at the head to head numbers of IND vs SA:
