India won the T20 World Cup title with a thrilling 7-run victory over South Africa in a classic final at Kensington Oval on Saturday.

Virat Kohli’s 76 had led India to a strong 176-7 but after Heinrich Klaasen blasted a superb 52 from 27 balls South Africa were closing in on victory only to be halted by some outstanding Indian bowling at the end.

South Africa ended on 169-8 with Hardik Pandya taking 3-20 for India.
