India defended their T20 World Cup title with a dominant 96-run victory over New Zealand in the final at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium on March 8, 2026, posting 255 for 5—the highest total in a final—before restricting the Black Caps to 159. The win marked India's third title (after 2007 and 2024), the first consecutive success, the first by a host nation (as co-hosts), and secured on home soil. Sanju Samson was player of the tournament, with Jasprit Bumrah earning player of the match honors.
