After displaying the trophy to fans at the airport, the India team arrived at the ITC Maurya hotel in New Delhi. The victorious 15-member squad, along with the Rahul Dravid-led support staff, will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi before heading to Mumbai for a grand felicitation ceremony at Wankhede Stadium. Rohit Sharma and his teammates will also participate in an open-top bus victory parade along Marine Drive.
The players are expected to wear the special champion jersey during the parade and ceremony. In the photo shared by Sanju Samson, the Team India jersey features a second star above the BCCI logo, representing their second T20 World Cup title. India won the first edition of the tournament under MS Dhoni’s captaincy in 2007. The word “champions” is also printed on the front of the jersey.
Rohit Sharma emerged from the airport holding the T20 World Cup trophy. Chants of Virat Kohli’s name filled the air as hundreds of fans welcomed the team. Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav even danced to the beat of dhols outside the team hotel, where a special cake-cutting ceremony was arranged.
