Team India now have 2 T20 World Cups in their trophy cabinet after the Men in Blue won their 2nd title after a 17-year long wait by defeating South Africa by 7 runs in Barbados.
In a video released by the BCCI showcasing the emotions of fans and players during the roadshow, captain Rohit reminisces about his first T20 World Cup win as a player in 2007. He mentions that the 2024 victory is particularly special to him as he was leading the team. The Indian skipper also expressed his joy in being able to bring smiles to the faces of the entire nation with their win.
“2007 was a different feeling, we started off in the afternoon and this is in the evening. I cannot forget 2007 as it was my first World Cup. This is little more special because I was leading the team so it’s a very proud moment for me. This is going to be mad. You can make out the excitement and it shows how much it means not just to us but also to the entire nation. It means a lot. So, I am very happy that we could achieve something like this for them as well,” said Rohit in a video released by BCCI.
