    What's the story

    India secured the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup title after beating South Africa in what was an incredible final.

    The Men in Blue successfully defended 176 in a game that went down to the wire.

    Rishabh Pant: 14 dismissals, 2024

    As mentioned, Pant now owns the most wicket-keeping dismissals in a T20 World Cup edition.

    His 14 dismissals in the 2024 edition included 13 catches and a stumping.

    Interestingly, no other wicket-keeper has recored 10 or more dismissals in a T20 World Cup event.

    Among Indians, former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni follows Pant with eight such dismissals (2016).

    Adam Gilchrist: 9 dismissals, 2007

    Veteran wicket-keeper Adam Gilchrist effected nine dismissals in the inaugural T20 World Cup (2007).

    He took nine catches in six matches as Australia reached the semi-finals, where a spirited India stunned them.

    With the bat, Gilchrist smashed 169 runs at a decent strike-rate of 150.89. His power-packed starts with Matthew Hayden gave Australia impetus.

    Kumar Sangakkara: 9 dismissals, 2009

    Former Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara recorded nine wicket-keeping dismissals in the 2009 T20 World Cup.

    He took five catches and stumped the batters four times, with Sri Lanka finishing as the runners-up. They lost the final to Pakistan.

    Notably, Sangakkara scored 177 runs with the bat at 35.40. His tally included two half-centuries.

    Other wicket-keepers with nine dismissals

    It is worth noting that five other wicket-keepers have nine dismissals in a T20 World Cup edition - Kamran Akmal (2010), AB de Villiers (2012), Matthew Wade (2021), Jos Buttler (2022), and Scott Edwards (2022).
