India Winning World Cup 2024:Celebrating Nation’s Pride

India defeated South Africa to win the 2024 T20 World Cup, ending their lengthy international trophy drought. India became the second team in the event to win the T20 World Cup thrice, behind West Indies and England. 

An indication of India’s lasting influence in the sport is the country’s extensive record of international victories in both the ODI and T20 formats. Every championship has added to the illustrious history of Indian cricket, from the momentous victory in 1983 to the exhilarating victories in 2007, 2011, and 2024.

The Road to Victory: India’s Journey in the Tournament

Let us take a look at the steps leading up to the Final.

Group Stages

Ireland

India’s T20 World Cup 2024 campaign began with an eight-wicket victory over Reland on June 5 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.

Batting first, the Irish only managed to rack up 96 runs, thanks to a good performance by the Indian fast bowlers. Hardik Pandya led the attack with three wickets, next came Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh, who both took two wickets.

India completed the 97-run chase in 12.2 overs, with Rohit Sharma (52 runs in 37 balls) and Rishabh Pant (36 runs in 26 balls) guiding the way with the bat.

Pakistan

On June 9, the Rohit Sharma-led team defeated their arch-rivals in a bowler-dominated match in New York.

Pakistan won the toss and decided to bowl first. The Men in Green bowled India out for 119 runs, with Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf taking three wickets apiece, and only Rishabh Pant (42 runs in 31 balls) providing a significant contribution.

The Indian pacers were again in action, this time defending a modest total. Although they struggled to pick up wickets in the first ten overs, Jasprit Bumrah (3/14), Hardik Pandya (2/24) and Arshdeep Singh (1/31) burst into action, with a little help from Axar Patel (1/11), to keep Pakistan six runs behind.

USA

On June 12, India won convincingly by seven wickets over the co-hosts at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.

Arshdeep Singh’s immaculate stint, in which he took four wickets for nine runs, limited the USA to 110/8 in 20 overs.

Saurabh Netravalkar created a significant challenge by taking the wickets of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the third over. But anchoring efforts from Suryakumar Yadav (50 runs in 49 balls) and Shivam Dube (31 runs in 35 balls) allowed the Men in Blue cross the finish line with 10 balls to spare.

India qualified for the Super Eights by winning Group A with 7 points from four games.

Super Eights

Afghanistan

Transitioning from the United States to the West Indies for the Super Eights stage of the competition, India faced Afghanistan in the Group 1 opener on June 20 at the Kensington Oval in Barbados.

Suryakumar Yadav’s powerful knock (53 runs in 28 balls), assisted by Hardik Pandya (32 runs in 24 balls) and Axar Patel (12 runs in 6 balls), helped India reach 181 runs.

Afghanistan were bowled out for 134 runs, with Arshdeep Singh and Jasprit Bumrah both taking three wickets, followed by Kuldeep Yadav’s two.

Bangladesh

India maintained their Super Eights momentum with another dominant win over Bangladesh on June 22 at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.

Rohit Sharma’s quickfire 23 runs from 11 balls set the tone for India. Virat Kohli (37 runs in 28 balls), Rishabh Pant (36 runs in 24 balls), and Shivam Dube (34 runs in 24 balls) all delivered solid performances before Hardik Pandya’s blazing 50 off 27 balls propelled India to 196/5.

The Men in Blue held Bangladesh to 50 runs, with Kuldeep Yadav taking three wickets and Arshdeep Singh and Jasprit Bumrah taking two each.

Australia

In a replay of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Final loss, India defeated Australia and advanced to the semi-finals.

Rohit Sharma gave a show at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground, scoring 92 off 41 balls. Suryakumar Yadav’s quickfire 31 runs off 16 balls enabled India set a target of 206 runs for Australia.

Although Travis Head (76 runs in 43 balls) threatened to spoil India’s party once more, wicket-taking performances from Arshdeep Singh (3/37) and Kuldeep Yadav (2/24) helped their team to a 24-run victory.

Semi-finals

England 

In the 2022 Men’s T20 World Cup semi-finals, England defeated India by ten wickets. In 2024, India turned the tables on England, bowling them out for 103 and triumphed by 68 runs at Guyana’s Providence Stadium.

Batting first, Rohit Sharma (57 runs in 39 balls) and Suryakumar Yadav (47 runs in 36 balls) helped India set England a 172-run mark.

Defending the score, India’s spinners drove them to victory, limiting England to 103 runs in 16.4 overs. Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel each took three wickets, while Bumrah added two more.

Key Players and Their Contributions

Rohit Sharma 

Captain of India

(16 games, 257 runs at 36.71)

Despite being the second-highest run-scorer, the captain of India narrowly lost out to Travis Head—who scored runs more quickly and with a higher average—for a berth on the tournament’s best team. This is mostly because of his leadership, as he led from the front by being fully focused and rallied his Indian team to a World Cup triumph. Considering that three of his innings were played on a very challenging surface in New York, his strike percentage of 156.70 is even more remarkable. With a formidable 92 off 41 balls, he destroyed Australia when given a favourable track in St Lucia.  

Hardik Pandya

(7 matches, 11 wickets, 144 runs at 48, 7.64 economy)

Pandya overcame a challenging few years to help India win the World Cup final by bowling them out. In the decisive over, he took 3 for 20, including the hazardous David Miller. Also, it was a pleasant comeback to death batting form, as he made some significant contributions all throughout the competition. In a match against Bangladesh, he hit 50 off 27 balls when given more time at the crease. 

Jasprit Bumrah 

Player of the tournament 

(7 games, 15 wickets – 4.17 economy)

What a bowler. He was declared the Player of the Tournament because he played nearly the whole tournament with nothing but brilliance. His economy rate reveals how defenseless the opposition players were against his genius, and most of the time it seemed as though he was bowling in a Test match. In the final, India’s last hope was for Bumrah to deliver 12 of the 30 balls that South Africa needed to score 30 runs off of. Bumrah performed well and aided his team in the World Cup. 

Memorable Matches and Turning Points

India survived the match’s early difficulties.

One of the team’s best batsmen, Virat Kohli, was crucial to India’s final victory over South Africa. After opting to bat first, the Indian team was already having problems as they had only amassed 34 runs in the first five overs. This indicates that India had averaged just around one run per ball in the first quarter of their batting innings.

However, Kohli was able to raise that average. India scored 176-7 at the end of their batting innings, which meant they had scored 176 runs off of 120 balls and seven men had been removed.

When South Africa batted, they appeared serious; Heinrich Klaasen helped them score 147 runs in 15 overs. However, the side began to struggle after he was out. Before Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah threw a ball that ended in an out, Marco Jansen had only scored two runs.

Bumrah’s hard-to-hit bowling style won him the title of “Player of the Tournament.”

Fan Reactions and Celebrations

Witnessing the Indian cricket team’s triumph parade after winning the T20 World Cup 2024 drew thousands of spectators to Mumbai. The Indian cricket team arrived in Mumbai, where hundreds of supporters came to celebrate the team’s victory in the T20 World Cup, it was shown in a series of photos shared by the Indian Cricket Council (ICC) on Instagram.

The Impact on Indian Cricket and Future Prospects

Not only did India’s triumph over South Africa in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 spark widespread celebrations, but it also signalled a dramatic change in the advertising industry.

Matches were played throughout the US and the West Indies during the month-long competition, which featured 20 teams and ended on June 29. According to a survey shared exclusively with Mint, advertisers strongly targeted the India matches, which resulted in a 38% boost in ad volumes compared to the 2022 edition in Australia. According to TAM Sports, a branch of TAM Media Research, a partnership between AC Nielsen and Kantar IMRB, ads for Indian matches increased by 90%, indicating a high level of spectator interest.

There was a notable turnover of brands for the 2024 World Cup; just one firm remained consistent from the previous editions. Notably, traditional industries like food (biscuits), pan masala, and cars supplanted prominent categories like Thums Up and Apple in the top five.

Conclusion: The Legacy of India’s World Cup Win

India’s 2024 T20 World Cup victory over South Africa marked the end of a lengthy trophy drought, showcasing their dominance in cricket. Key performances, strategic leadership, and enthusiastic fan support highlighted their journey. This win also significantly boosted ad volumes and brand turnover, reflecting cricket’s immense popularity in India.

I started my journey at Chrysalis High in the third grade, and have been studying in the same till now and from all these years, I can say that Chrysalis High has the best staff and curriculum.

PUPA (Prior Understanding of Pupil Attributes) is a unique method used in Chrysalis High to understand a student’s learning ability, skills and emotions. They gain this knowledge from the parents and us in an effort to understand us better. The extracurricular activities, inter-school competitions, sports and cultural days organised help incorporate fun and games along with academics.

The student council and the elections for its positions familiarise a student with a sense of responsibility and teamwork. Studying at Chrysalis High has helped me grow to my full potential and has indeed trained me for the exam called life.

I would like to thank all the teachers and staff at Chrysalis High for making my learning experience the best.

Ms. Indrani Singh

Chief Vision Officer, Principal, Chrysalis High Marq & Head - Chrysalis Kids

Ms. Indrani Singh possesses a MSc and B.Ed degree to her credit. She has over 10 years of experience in the field of education and has climbed the rungs of leadership with her sheer dedication, hard work and love for her profession. She joined as the Head of Chrysalis Kids in 2013, which is a pre primary school of Chrysalis. Her out of box thinking and her ideology of doing the right thing for the children have helped her to pioneer new processes to make learning an enriching experience for the children. Across a period of seven years, Ms. Indrani Singh has become a flag bearer of Chrysalis vision, especially the PUPA (Prior Understanding of Pupil Attributes) Program. Indrani brought in the idea of Pre-CHAMPS to all Chrysalis schools. Known for her ideation & focus on quality, Indrani leaves no stone unturned to ensure children have a wonderful learning experience at Chrysalis. In 2017, she was made Associate Academic Director – Pre Primary & again promoted to Academic Director – Pre Primary, a role she handles along with the responsibilities of Chrysalis High, Marq. Under her supervision and guidance, many initiatives like Pre-CHAMPS, AwSTEM, Festival of learning were initiated and appreciated by all. Today she handles multitude of responsibilities from heading two schools to overseeing the Pre-Primary Curriculum Team of Chrysalis as the Academic Director. In addition to these profiles, she was recently promoted as Chief Vision Officer to propel PUPA, an initiative of Chrysalis, to greater heights. To this day, her ideas and her sheer determination to always try something different and new makes her a formidable and integral part of Chrysalis. With an unending pandemic looming over us, the future for education looked uncertain. But Ms. Indrani with her belief that learning should not stop for the children, ideated on the perfect balance of online and live class model to suit the learning styles of the children. The plan started with what best would suit the children and also help the working parents who were facing their own challenges and obstacles. The online model started with curriculum videos which the Chrysalis teachers recorded with the right guidance and methodology which was well defined by her. The live classes began with once a week class to slowly introduce the children to digital learning. With children adapting to live class, the sessions increased to add more to their knowledge. Teachers were sensitized about the challenges of live class and how to ensure that they do the right thing for the children and be an integral part in their learning given the circumstances. Providing the right support to parents and the challenges they faced, were also key elements of the whole digital teaching process. Providing individual support to the children was one way to ensure we partnered with parents to provide the right support to the children and ensure that the learning did not stop.

Working at Chrysalis High has been a wholesome experience for me. What stands out for me is the support I receive from the school management in standing by my vision and passion as a teacher.

It would not be an exaggeration in the slightest, if I said that I feel always supported by the principal, coordinator and staff in performing my duties to the best of my abilities. This makes me confident that I would be given room to grow as an educator. It feels great to be part of a group that takes meaningful steps towards turning our philosophy and values into action!”

The values we would love to instill in our students at Chrysalis High are strongly rooted in our hearts by our compassionate and efficient school heads and mentors and model them to our students.

The induction programme has been nothing short of immense learning and much-needed guidance to face all our challenges head-on and it has helped prepare ourselves for the year ahead.

At Chrysalis High, I find myself doing what I love to do, staying true to what I strongly believe in and above all I can see myself as a passionate learner with new opportunities to learn each and every day. To top it all, the love and support my students shower on me is an additional perk without which I cannot be the happy teacher that I am today.

Secondary Teacher

Chrysalis High team integrates compassion into their teaching standards, emphasizes the importance of values and builds leaders through each of their classes and lessons. It allows for a lower student to teacher ratio. Online teaching during difficult times of Covid – 19 was indeed a huge challenge for all schools but the support provided by the school to transcend the challenge of teaching students by providing apt and timely training to teachers in online teaching methodology is commendable. This has been very useful to students as well as their parents. The teachers had worked hard in coming up with innovative methods of teaching to keep the students up breast with subjects with their enthusiasm intact.  It’s been a wonderful journey for me at Chrysalis High so far.  The entire team works in unison with one thought in mind – the betterment of the children.

My sincere thanks to Principal ma’am, Coordinators and last but not least my colleagues for the constant support and love.

Upasana Banerjee –
Primary Teacher

I am very happy studying at Chrysalis High Bannerghatta Road. I got admission during the lockdown period. The online classes were well organized and very interactive.

I gained a lot of knowledge during online classes, and the teachers understood us quickly and were there for us at all times. Even though we didn’t meet personally, the atmosphere at Chrysalis was always very warm and supportive. Even though online classes were new to everyone, our teachers were able to identify where we were lagging, and they provided Individual Support Classes (ISP).

The teachers are very interactive, friendly with us, and support us to come up with our own ideas. Practical explanation of the subject through STEaM is also one of the most exciting sessions in our school. The teachers also covered extracurricular activities and enrichment activities during the online classes. The warm welcome by the teachers to the offline classes made us more excited to attend school and a day at Chrysalis High with my friends and teachers is something that I eagerly look forward to every day.

Chrysalis High, is a great school which develops a good foundation for kids both academically and also in character building. Both the pre primary and now the primary school years for Samay, have been socially nurturing and academically challenging. Our son loves his school, he has come a long way from his nursery days till today, the 3rd grade.

Everyone at school, be it the Principal, Coordinators, teachers or the administrative staff, all have been really cooperative and supportive. Chrysalis also has one of the best parent – teacher relationship!

Overall, Chrysalis High, has been a wonderful experience for both Samay and us till date. We appreciate the great work and looking forward for more!

I have been in Chrysalis High BG Road since 2018. The teachers have laid a strong foundation, helped me improve on my basics in all subjects and played a major role in me evolving into the best version of myself. My school has given me many opportunities to develop my leadership skills and I will always feel grateful about that. I have made many friends in the last couple of years, thanks to the warm atmosphere at Chrysalis High. During online classes our school left no stone unturned and even though our classes were online, they ensured we learnt with the same enthusiasm.

My Voyage at Chrysalis High Marq has been spectacular and overwhelming. The school has positive vibes that makes it a beautiful shelter for not only students but also for the teachers. Here at Chrysalis we are motivated to nurture the young minds in the best possible way.

I learnt number of years of work experience is not that counts, what is more important is the quality one possesses through their learning experience. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and unfaltering curiosity.

Chrysalis High is an impressive organization that makes educators feel supported and equipped. I ’am proud to be a part of this institution that strive to take eloquent steps to transform our care philosophy and values into effective action.

I feel privileged to be an integral part of such a proficient and progressive workforce. Chrysalis oozes integrity and excellence that is t=refreshing and essential in our daily duties.

Chrysalis exemplifies what it means to be an organization that is “To help our children excel by understanding them, guiding them on the right path and strengthening their self belief.”

I enjoy working at Chrysalis High because this is a place where high energy meets absolute dedication.As a teacher, each day is a new day for me and I fully value the myriad opportunities that enhance my experience.

I also appreciate the unique working atmosphere and  the collaborative culture  that allows me to grow not only as a professional, but also as a person.

The school provides me with a lot of scope to interact with children and their parents, and this gives me an opportunity  to gain deeper insights into ways to help each of them achieve their academic goals.

The school’s vision for children is a guiding principle for all of us. It is indeed a pleasure to work with my immediate superiors who are both-understanding and supportive in all aspects. Together, I am certain that we will have a mutually enriching and exciting academic year ahead.

Chrysalis High Marq has paved new roads of possibilities of learning and fruitful experiences for both teachers such as myself and the students.

The things that are most satisfying for me are the never ending opportunities to learn, perform out of the comfort zone and most importantly the endless love that I receive from the children. Life is a continuous learning process and Chrysalis High Marq has made it possible by giving me many opportunities to be creative in the way I work. The whole team works as a family by supporting and helping each other at any given point of time .

The motivation, appreciation, support and positivity received by us is in turn passed on to our students. The school believes in the holistic development of all its children and takes all the necessary measures to nurture the young minds in a fruitful way. I am extremely proud to be a part of the Chrysalis High Marq family.

Shivani
Educator, Chrysalis High Marq

In the field of Construction, they say- “ A well-designed and strong foundation keeps the building standing while the forces of nature wreak havoc.” The same purpose that a foundation serves for a building, schooling does for our children- ensures they are wholly prepared for the journey called Life!

Having worked for a few schools in the past, I was aware of the paramount role a school plays in the initial nurturing of a child. While joining Chrysalis, I expected a similar school environment as in my past, but to my astonishment, things were incredibly better. While the academics here are indeed exceptional, even better is the focus on the character development of each child. Teachers know their Children really well, beyond just recalling the child’s name; all thanks to initiatives like PUPA. The teachers nurture children in a way that is not just caring and loving but also instills in them qualities like compassion, collaboration, empathy and many more from an early age. Children are also encouraged in a way that they constantly thrive to develop confidence in their own unique abilities.

Well, what we reap is what we sow; and not just the teachers but the whole team in Chrysalis believes in this fact. We work together tirelessly because we know we are nurturing kids to form a responsible and noble generation for the future!

We have engrossing and fun-filled Indoor Champs, Performing Arts classes, Buddy interaction time etc. The teachers in Chrysalis are hardworking and determined . I am so proud and lucky to go to Chrysalis!
