India’s Cricket Governing Body, the Board of Control For Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced a victory-parade for the Indian Cricket Team in honour of them lifting the Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 trophy in the West Indies.

After lifting their second T20 World Cup trophy, the Men in Blue were stuck in Barbados due to the threat of a hurricane. The BCCI then arranged a special Air India charter flight for the entire team members and support staff members to help them travel back to India safely.
The Indian Cricket Team will land in India’s capital city of Delhi at 6 AM on Thursday of this week. They will meet Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for breakfast at 11:00 AM. Following their meeting with the PM, the Rohit Sharma-led team will travel to Mumbai in chartered flight for the victory parade.
The Indian Cricket Governing Body will also be felicitating and honouring the Men in Blue with a massive prize pool of 125 Crore Indian Rupees at Mumbai’s iconic Wankhede Stadium.
Jay Shah, the secretary of the BCCI also gave an invitation to all the Cricket fans to join the Rohit Sharma-led team in celebrating the T20 World Cup 2024 victory together.
