T20 World Cup: India’s left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh said the team’s focus on process and self-belief was key to their 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup triumph on home soil, adding that the squad has set its sights on winning multiple trophies in the coming decade.
With a 96-run win over New Zealand in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India became the first team to defend its title, win the trophy thrice and also emerge victorious on home soil.
“When we won the last (T20) World Cup (in 2024), me, Hardik (Pandya) bhai and a lot of players from the core team said that we have to win at least five trophies in the next 10 years.
“That was the main focus and we knew that if we played with that standard, the result would come automatically. We followed the process and backed our game,” said Arshdeep, who picked nine wickets in eight games at an economy rate of 8.46, in a video posted by bcci.tv on Thursday.
