T20 World Cup 2024 Final Match: The cricketing world is buzzing with anticipation as India and South Africa gear up for a thrilling showdown in the final of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024.  India booked their place in the final with a dominant performance against arch-rivals England in the second semi-final.

Rohit Sharma's blistering knock of 57 and a clinical bowling display powered them to a convincing 68-run victory. This win marked a remarkable comeback for the Men in Blue, who were looking to avenge their defeat to England in the 2023 World Cup.

South Africa, on the other hand, stormed into their maiden World Cup final with a ruthless display against Afghanistan in the first semi-final. Their bowlers bundled out Afghanistan for a paltry 56 runs, which South Africa chased down comfortably with nine wickets in hand. This clinical performance showcased the Proteas' determination to finally lift a major ICC trophy.

The final promises to be a contest between two well-matched teams. India boasts a batting line-up brimming with firepower, with the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Suryakumar Yadav in top form. Their bowling attack, featuring the spin duo of Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav, has also been a force to be reckoned with.

South Africa, on the other hand, will be banking on their potent pace attack led by Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje. Their batting line-up, with Quinton de Kock and David Miller in fine fettle, is equally capable of causing damage.

T20 World Cup 2024 Final Weather

Kensington Oval has a reputation for favouring pace bowlers. Fast bowlers have thrived here, claiming wickets at an impressive rate (59 wickets with an average of 20.22 and an economy of 7.88). Interestingly, the final will be played on the same pitch used for the Namibia vs Oman match, where both teams managed just 109 runs with David Wiese (Namibia) taking 3/28.

However, the pitch isn't solely for bowlers. The Scotland vs England match played on the same surface, saw the Scottish batters put up a strong 90/0 in 10 overs before rain intervened. This suggests the pitch offers some assistance for batsmen as well.

Weather Watch: A Potential Dampener

The final might face some weather challenges. While thunderstorms and rain started early in Bridgetown, there's a predicted window of clear skies from 9 AM to 1 PM. However, AccuWeather forecasts rain to return at 1 PM and continue intermittently between 8 PM and 11 PM (33% to 56% chance).

A reserve day is available, but unfortunately, rain is also expected on June 30th. This adds a bit of uncertainty to the highly anticipated India vs South Africa clash.
