In the domain of cricketing spectacles, the mark of a truly exceptional World Cup goes beyond the customary brilliance in batting, bowling, and fielding. The World Cup, italicized and revered, beckons for moments that carve themselves into the chronicles of cricketing history.
From Yuvraj Singh's breathtaking six sixes in an over to Carlos Brathwaite's scintillating five consecutive sixes off Ben Stokes to clinch the coveted trophy in the final – these records are etched in the memories of the cricket fans.
Despite the ICC boasting a modest 12 Full Members, the T20 World Cups have displayed a remarkable diversity, witnessing six champions from four continents; five, if Guyana, a part of the West Indies in South America, is also considered.
The tournament's growth has been noteworthy, with the last edition featuring 16 teams. The upcoming iteration will mark further expansion as it is set to be a 20-team affair. To put it in perspective, the FIFA World Cup only exceeded 16 teams in its 12th edition, back in 1982.
As the anticipation for the T20 World Cup 2024 intensifies, let's take a glance at some of the paramount records etched into the tournament's history. The countdown has begun, and cricket zealots worldwide eagerly await the unfolding drama on the T20 World Cup stage.
