The championship-winning Team India has returned to the country, and a grand welcome was given to them at the airport, where a large crowd was present. Rohit Sharma showcased the trophy to the nation. Additionally, when the players reached the hotel, they were seen performing bhangra. Suryakumar Yadav, Rohit, and Rishabh Pant were all seen dancing to the beats of dhol and nagada. Today, the team is scheduled to meet Prime Minister Modi in Delhi.
Suryakumar Yadav, who took a spectacular catch in the final, significantly changed the course of the match, allowing the Indian team to win the T20 World Cup after 17 years. He played an important role in the World Cup final. The images captured show the celebration across the country, from outside the airport, where Indian team captain Rohit Sharma displayed the trophy to the entire nation, holding it up for all the fans who had gathered in large numbers since the morning to catch a glimpse of the Team India players.
Cricket is celebrated in India with every breath, and time and again it has proven its significance. Whether it was the minor setbacks on November 19, 2023 in the final match or the joy of winning the World Cup, fans have always supported the team. Since early morning, fans gathered in large numbers at the airport, and when Rohit Sharma appeared with the World Cup trophy, the energy felt there was like that of a stadium. Whether it was Virat Kohli’s performance in the final match, Rohit’s captaincy, Bumrah being counted among the legends, or Suryakumar’s incredible catch, and Arshdeep’s wickets, fans were eager to catch a glimpse of Team India and the World Cup trophy.
Today, there will be a victory parade in Mumbai, but fans in Delhi turned the airport into a victory parade with their overwhelming presence. In a short while, the team will be heading to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This meeting holds significance because, on November 19, 2023, after India’s defeat to Australia in the final match, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the players in the dressing room and assured them that their hard work would pay off someday. And within nine months, he gets another chance to meet Team India, this time with the World Cup trophy. This will be a monumental moment for every Indian who has been waiting for this day for many years.
