This project is a creative way of showing the complete history of ICC T20 Cricket World Cups using Microsoft Excel. It is not just a simple table, but a smart project where we used the XLOOKUP function to fetch information automatically. The project is also presented in the form of a video output to make it more interactive and engaging.

What the Project Includes:

  1. Year-wise T20 World Cup Records – Starting from 2007, every edition of the T20 World Cup is covered.

  2. Winner & Runner-Up Details – Each year’s winner and runner-up team is displayed with their national flags.

  3. Captains with Photos – Names and images of both winning and runner-up captains are shown.

  4. Winning Moments – Real pictures of champion teams holding the trophy are added to make the file more attractive.

  5. Automated with XLOOKUP – Instead of manually searching, the XLOOKUP formula is used so that when a year is selected, Excel automatically shows the winner, runner-up, captains, and images.

  6. Video Demonstration – The final output has been converted into a video, showing how the Excel file works in real time.

Skills Learned:

  • Using XLOOKUP for dynamic searching and data fetching.

  • Designing a structured data table in Excel.

  • Inserting and aligning flags, photos, and images in cells.

  • Creating a project that is both educational and visually appealing.

  • Presenting Excel work as a video output for better understanding.

Why This Project is Unique:

  • Combines Excel formulas with sports data (Cricket), making learning fun.

  • Shows how Excel can go beyond calculations to create interactive projects.

  • Trains students in both data handling and presentation skills.

  • The video format makes it easy to share and demonstrate.

Final Result:

The result is an interactive T20 World Cup record book in Excel, where users can check:

  • Which team won in any year.

  • Who were the captains.

  • What the winning moment looked like.
    And all of this is possible with just a single XLOOKUP search.
