The T20 World Cup 2024 is nearing its conclusion. From an initial 20 teams, the competition has narrowed down to the final four, who will compete in the semi-final on 27 June in the West Indies.
India triumphed over Australia by 24 runs, securing their place as the third team to qualify for the T20 World Cup semi-final, following England and South Africa. With one spot remaining, the contest continues between Australia, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh, with Rashid Khan’s team having the most straightforward path.
The competition has seen only four team totals of 200 while not a single batter could score a century as the highest individual score of the tournament was posted by West Indies’ Nicholas Pooran when he scored 98 runs against Afghanistan before losing his wicket with a runout unluckily.
Looking at the individual stats, Australia's Travis Head is leading the list of highest run-getters.
