Rohit Sharma-Led Team India to Celebrate T20 World Cup 2024 Victory with Open Bus Parade in Mumbai
After a thrilling victory in the T20 World Cup 2024 final in Barbados, the Indian men’s cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, will be celebrating their triumph with an open bus parade in Mumbai. Similar to the celebrations in 2007 when MS Dhoni’s Team India won the inaugural T20 World Cup, this victory parade will mark a historic moment for Indian cricket.
The team, stranded in Barbados due to Hurricane Beryl, finally made their way back to India on a specially arranged ‘Long Range’ Air India chartered aircraft. Upon their arrival in Delhi, the players are expected to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi for breakfast before boarding a chartered flight to Mumbai.
Plans for the celebratory parade at the Wankhede Stadium are underway, with a small presentation ceremony expected to take place. Rohit Sharma will hand over the prestigious T20 World Cup trophy to BCCI secretary Jay Shah in front of adoring fans and supporters.
India’s victory in the T20 World Cup final against South Africa ended their 11-year drought for an ICC trophy and a 17-year wait for the T20 World Cup title. The team’s remarkable journey and triumphant performance have captured the hearts of cricket fans worldwide.
In a heartwarming gesture, BCCI secretary Jay Shah also extended a helping hand to Indian media personnel stranded in Barbados, offering them a chance to fly back with the victorious Indian team. His generosity and support during the challenging times in Barbados have been greatly appreciated.
Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming victory parade and celebration at the Wankhede Stadium as Team India basks in the glory of their T20 World Cup 2024 triumph.
