After crushing New Zealand by 96 runs to become the first team to retain the T20 World Cup, India has set a new target: Olympic Gold at LA 2028.
The victory in Ahmedabad marks India’s third T20 title and the first time a host nation has won the tournament.
Captain Suryakumar Yadav noted that the fearless “brand of cricket” established during their 2024 triumph has now become the team’s winning blueprint.
India is the first three-time T20 World Cup champion (2007, 2024, 2026).
With cricket returning to the Olympics in 2028, Yadav confirmed gold is the “next big aim.”
Coach Gautam Gambhir credited the team’s “courage” for their unbeaten run on home soil.
As fans celebrate across the country, the message is clear: India’s dominance is no longer just a streak, it’s a dynasty.
