The Super 10 stage of the ICC T20 World Cup 2016 kicked off in India on 15 March at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur with the host nation taking on the Kiwis at the inaugural match of the tournament.

Despite the fact that the 'Men in Blue’ started their World T20 campaign as the overwhelming favorites, it was the West Indies Cricket Team led by Darren Sammy who had the final laugh in the ultimate match of the competition at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

Although most of the players in the famous Indian batting line-up failed to create an impact throughout the recently concluded World T20, Virat Kohli exhibited a string of stellar batting performances to guide the 'Men in Blue’ to the semi-final stage of the tournament.

Meanwhile, the New Zealand side created quite a lot of stir during the early stages of the competition, defeating the Indians by 47 runs in the opening match of the T20 World Cup. They also went on to win all of their group stage matches only to crash out of the tournament in the first semi-final against England.

However, the men from the Caribbean kept their composure in the big final against the Three Lions to pull off a memorable 4-wicket victory to clinch their second World T20 title in the City of Joy.

Here are ten iconic images from the ICC T20 World Cup 2016 that sum up the entire tournament:
