ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 Awards: India didn’t just win the trophy — they swept the awards too. Here’s every honour handed out at the ICC T20 World Cup 2026.

What a night. What a tournament. When the final whistle of cricket blew at the Narendra Modi Stadium on March 8, 2026, India had done the unthinkable — winning their third T20 World Cup title, defending the crown, and doing it on home soil. But beyond the trophy, the individual battles across the tournament produced some jaw-dropping performances that deserve their own spotlight.

From a wicketkeeper-batsman finding his destiny to the world’s best bowler being, well, the world’s best bowler — here’s the complete list of ICC T20 World Cup 2026 award winners.

Bumrah: The Man Who Made the Final His Own

There are match-winning performances, and then there are Jasprit Bumrah performances. In the final against New Zealand, Bumrah returned figures of 4 wickets for just 15 runs — a spell that essentially ended New Zealand’s chase before it even began. He also finished as the tournament’s leading wicket-taker with 14 scalps, boasting the best economy rate among all frontline bowlers. This is what peak fast bowling looks like.

According to the ICC official rankings, Bumrah has long been the gold standard in T20 cricket — and this tournament was proof once again.

Sanju Samson: A Dream Fulfilled

If there’s one story that’ll make you believe in persistence, it’s Sanju Samson’s. The Kerala keeper-batter was famously left out of the 2024 World Cup-winning XI despite being in the squad — a heartbreak that would have broken lesser men. But he came back stronger, scoring 321 runs at a staggering average of 80.25 and strike rate of 199.37, also clearing the fence 24 times — the most sixes of any batter in the tournament.

After receiving the Player of the Tournament honour, Samson revealed that guidance from Sachin Tendulkar helped him mentally rebuild. A dream, indeed, that took years to sink in.

Pakistan’s Farhan Shines Despite Early Exit

Not every story ends in glory, but Sahibzada Farhan’s tournament run deserves immense credit. The Pakistan opener finished as the tournament’s highest run-scorer with 383 runs — a remarkable feat considering Pakistan’s early exit. It’s the kind of performance that serves as a reminder: individual brilliance and team success don’t always walk hand in hand.

India’s Dominant Haul — A Fitting Reflection

India’s dominance across the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 Award categories isn’t a coincidence. It’s the product of a squad that fired as a unit throughout the tournament. With Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy complementing the firepower of Samson and Bumrah, this was a complete team performance that history will remember fondly.
