After India won the first Twenty20 World Cup in 2007, four more countries went on to win the title in the next four editions. The fifth tournament, which was the 2014 ICC World Twenty20, was won by Sri Lanka. It's the only team as of now to play in three finals. The three more editions in between were won by Pakistan (defeating Sri Lanka in the final), England (defeating Australia in the final), and West Indies, who snatched a wonderful victory from Sri Lanka in the final.
While India's win against Pakistan is the closest finish so far, the victory by a huge margin came to Pakistan when it won against Sri Lanka by 8 wickets in 2009. The final between Australia and England in 2010 saw a comfortable victory for the latter. Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are among the heavyweight teams that have never won T20 world cup.
