Indian captain Rohit Sharma and South Africa’s Aiden Markram will compete for the same goal of lifting the T20 World Cup in 2024. Both teams have been waiting a long time to win an ICC trophy. Across the previous eight editions, six captains have etched their names in history by lifting the prestigious trophy. Notably, Indian captain MS Dhoni set the tone by clinching the inaugural title in 2007, inaugurating a legacy that continues to shape the tournament’s narrative.

On the other hand, MS Dhoni of India, Paul Collingwood of England, Lasith Malinga of Sri Lanka, and Pakistan’s Younis Khan have each celebrated victory once in this prestigious tournament. Interestingly, none of these five accomplished individuals will be included in the ICC T20 World Cup 2021.
