India clinched the title by defeating South Africa in Barbados, marking an end to their 11-year wait for an ICC trophy. Throughout the tournament, Rohit Sharma showcased exemplary leadership, scoring 257 runs and delivering crucial performances against Australia and England. Kuldeep Yadav praised Rohit for his strategic planning and motivation, emphasizing that the trophy was a testament to Rohit's leadership style and commitment to the team.
