Three years after the heartbreak of losing the 2023 ODI World Cup final at his home ground in Ahmedabad, Jasprit Bumrah returned to the same venue for the 2026 T20 World Cup final -- and this time, victory was his.
In front of more than 86,000 roaring fans, Bumrah produced a career-best T20I performance of 4 for 15, guiding India to a commanding win over New Zealand and claiming the Player-of-the-Final award.
But the on-field heroics were only part of the story.
Bumrah shared a quiet, proud moment with son Angad who accompanied him as a player escort (mascot), as the national anthem played. His wife Sanjana Ganesan watched proudly as father and son held hands on the field.
