Of the 10 Men’s T20 WC finals, only four have been won by the side batting first, three of them by India.

Looks like we will have to wait a little bit more for the presentations. We will get every interview word-to-word as we have done all through the World Cup. Hang on as we still have a lot of stuff up our sleeves.
