In the final against South Africa, Bumrah turned the game in India’s favor when South Africa needed only 30 runs from as many deliveries. The fast bowler conceded just six runs in his last two overs and took the crucial wicket of Marco Jansen (2 off 4). This combined effort by Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, and Hardik Pandya in the death overs helped India defeat South Africa by seven runs, securing their second T20 World Cup title.
