Team India can create history in the final match. They have a chance to become the first side ever to defend their T20 World Cup title. The team can also become the first host nation to win the tournament. Amid the excitement, former England captain Michael Vaughan decided to poke fun at the Indian team.
Before today's big final against New Zealand, Karthik shared a video of himself ironing a shirt on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). He captioned the post, "The shirt’s pressed. The vibes are set. Now it’s over to the boys."
You need to use that Iron on the pitch DK .. India like a flat track .. ? t.co/ZAWWaRNyfY

Karthik continued this exact same tradition for the Champions Trophy 2025 final. India played New Zealand in that match in Dubai and won by four wickets. The tradition has worked for women's cricket, too.
India Face Tough Test Against New Zealand in T20 World Cup 2026 Final
While fans hope Karthik's ritual works again, India face a very tough test. The Men in Blue played the ODI World Cup 2023 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium. However, they suffered a massive heartbreak.
New Zealand will also be desperate to win today. The Black Caps previously lost the 2015 and 2019 ODI World Cup finals. They also finished as runners-up in the 2021 T20 World Cup and lost the Champions Trophy final to India last year.
