Under the captaincy of Suryakumar, Team India made this record for the first time in the history of T20 International cricket.

Delhi: The Indian cricket team had created history by winning the title of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. At that time, Team India did not lose a single match in the entire tournament and won the trophy. After this, Rohit retired from T20 International, due to which it was believed that Hardik Pandya would become the new captain.
