    T20 WC: Amit Shah Attends IND-NZ Final With Son Jay Shah And Family

    Union Home Minister Amit Shah: Team India produced a scintillating batting display in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 final against New Zealand at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with Union Home Minister Amit Shah in attendance alongside his wife, son Jay Shah, who is also the chairman of the International Cricket Council, daughter-in-law, and grandson.

    The hosts stormed to 92/0 in the powerplay, the highest ever in a T20 World Cup, thanks to a breathtaking assault by Abhishek Sharma. The left-hander smashed 51 off just 19 balls, the fastest fifty in this edition, before departing in the seventh over in a moment of luck for New Zealand as a mistimed edge found Tim Seifert at the wicket.

    Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson then took over the reins. Kishan arrived at the crease and quickly unleashed a flurry of boundaries, including multiple sixes off Lockie Ferguson and Matt Henry, while Samson brought up his third consecutive fifty in T20 World Cups with precise timing and aggressive placement. By the 13th over, India had raced to 171/1, with Samson unbeaten on 69(39) and Kishan at 42 not out off 18 balls, keeping New Zealand’s bowlers on the back foot.
