This time also they choked. 34/3. Then Chokli was playing at ~100sr. Only after he got half century, he remembered he is playing t20. Not a single boundry in 13 overs by him. Because of axar and dube india had a decent total.
There are 2 Main reasons for win :
1. great bowling by arshdeep & bumrah
2. Sa being bigger choker than ind. They needed 26 from 4 overs with Klassen & miller in crease and Jansen & maharaj yet to come. Irrespective of conditions, they should've won.

Well in my opinion Kohli played according to the situation and the Man of the match award is justified. However, I do believe that SA should have won the match easily after the carnage of Klassen. However they choked and we grabbed the opportunity happily.

As the poll predicted we have won the T20 World Cup 2024. Congratulations to Indian team for giving this moment to all of us. Also, no bigger occasion for stalwart like Virat & Rohit to bid adieu the T20 International format. Pure elation! Nothing better feeling than that. Jai Hind .
