The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has always taken a keen interest in sports. He had sent his congratulatory message right after the men in blue won the T20 World Cup last week.

Indian Cricket Team Returns Home After T20 World Cup Victory

The T20 World Cup-winning Indian cricket team returned to the country on Thursday morning aboard a charter flight and went to the Prime Minister’s residence soon after. They met PM Modi at his 7, Lok Kalyan Marg residence and interacted with him over breakfast.

Travel Challenges and Special Arrangements

The side was unable to head back home immediately after the title win due to a shutdown forced by Hurricane Beryl in Barbados. They were cocooned in their hotel before the BCCI made arrangements for a special charter flight. The Air India special charter flight AIC24WC — Air India Champions 24 World Cup — which left Barbados around 4:50 am local time on Wednesday arrived in Delhi at 6 am (IST) on Thursday after a 16-hour non-stop journey.

Onboard the Charter Flight

The Indian squad, its support staff, the players’ families, and some BCCI officials were aboard the flight along with members of the travelling media contingent.

Fans’ Enthusiastic Welcome

Hundreds of supporters, holding placards congratulating their favourites and waving the national flag, braved the weather to welcome the victorious side, which defeated South Africa by seven runs in the final in Bridgetown on Saturday last week. “We have waited for this moment for the past 13 years. The team has made us proud by winning the World Cup,” a fan, who claimed to have been waiting since 4:30 am in the morning, said, referring to India’s last World Cup triumph which came back in 2011.https://www.news18.com/india/t20-cricket-world-cup-india-team-pm-modi-meeting-champion-congratulations-8953876.html

Team India Ends 11-Year ICC Trophy Drought with T20 World Cup Victory

The squad won India its second T20 World Cup title on Saturday, ending an 11-year wait for an ICC trophy. India’s previous ICC title was in 2013 when they won the Champions Trophy under Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Their earlier World Cup triumphs include victories in 1983 (ODI), 2007 (T20), and 2011 (ODI).

After meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the team will head to Mumbai for an open bus victory parade and a felicitation ceremony at the Wankhede Stadium. This celebration marks a significant moment for Indian cricket fans who have eagerly awaited another ICC victory. The team’s success has reignited national pride and enthusiasm for the sport.
