The victory parade featuring the Indian cricket team will kick off on Thursday evening, starting from Nariman Point and culminating at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in south Mumbai. The event is scheduled between 5 and 7 pm, with heightened security along the Marine Drive stretch.
The team, fresh from their triumphant return from Barbados, received a warm welcome from fans at the New Delhi airport before heading to the celebratory event at the ITC Maurya hotel. Key figures like captain Rohit Sharma, vice-captain Hardik Pandya, coach Rahul Dravid, and star player Virat Kohli took part in a festive cake-cutting ceremony to mark the beginning of the jubilant celebrations.
The journey back to India was made extra special with a chartered Air India flight, underscoring the significance of their victory. This win not only marks India’s second T20 World Cup title but also secures its fourth overall World Cup victory, ending an 11-year wait for an ICC trophy with a thrilling seven-run triumph over South Africa.
