The Indian cricket team arrived in Delhi early this morning after their triumphant 2024 T20 World Cup campaign. The Air India flight carrying the champions landed at Indira Gandhi International Airport at 6:05 AM. By 7:00 AM, the team, led by captain Rohit Sharma, emerged from the airport and boarded their team bus. Rohit Sharma, holding the T20 World Cup trophy, was the last to exit, captivating fans gathered at the airport.
Hundreds of supporters, despite the early hour and weather, gathered to celebrate the team’s victory. Waving the national flag and holding congratulatory placards, they eagerly awaited their heroes, who secured a thrilling seven-run victory against South Africa in Bridgetown the previous Saturday.
“We have waited for this moment for the past 13 years. The team has made us proud by winning the World Cup,” said one fan, who claimed to have been waiting since 4:30 AM. This victory holds special significance as it marks India’s first World Cup win since 2011.
