India looking forward to end drought for ICC trophy, South Africa to double its joy of entering World Cup final; exciting final awaits on Saturday

BARBADOS: Two teams who remain unbeaten in this T20 World Cup. One side is India, who are itching to reunite with an ICC championship after a long wait of 11 years. South Africa, on the other side, hopes to win the World Cup and experience double the joy of making it to a World Cup final. For India and South Africa, the match to be played at the Kensington Oval in Barbados on Saturday is not just a final of a cricket tournament, but an opportunity to make the people of their country happy by winning a trophy that everyone has been eagerly waiting for.

While South Africa marched into the final by thrashing Afghanistan in the semi-final, India entered the final by emphatically beating England, the current champions. As both teams have equally excelled in batting, bowling and fielding throughout the tournament, the final will be nothing short of a battle between equal forces.

Both teams are also infamous for losing in the knockout stages of ICC tournaments. South Africa is entering the final by breaking the jinx of constantly getting knocked out in the semi-final stage. India, who have been waiting to win an ICC championship since 2013, lost five finals in ICC tournaments in the last 11 years. Indian fans are hoping that the Rohit Sharma-led side will be able to overcome the final hurdle this time.
