Prime Minister’s Meeting and Mumbai Victory Parade:

The BCCI is celebrating the team’s win with Captain Rohit Sharma! The festivities kick off with a meeting with Prime Minister Modi in New Delhi, followed by a victory parade in Mumbai that same evening.

Detailed Schedule:

• Upon arrival in the capital, the team will check in at the ITC Maurya Hotel before heading straight for the Prime Minister’s residence for a meeting.
• The event will be divided into two segments: players followed by support staff, starting at 9.30 am.
• Following the meeting, the team will fly to Mumbai by a chartered flight for the evening’s victory parade.

Mumbai Victory Parade:

• As per the tentative plan, the parade will begin at the Air India Building near Nariman Point, culminating in a celebratory gathering at the iconic Wankhede Stadium.
• At Wankhede, the BCCI will formally felicitate the World Cup victory.

Long-Awaited Return:

Hurricane Beryl forced the team to delay their departure from Barbados, disrupting life on the island for almost two days.

Finally, on Wednesday morning, an Air India special jet (AIC24WC) whisked them away to New Delhi after a grueling 16-hour non-stop flight.

This victory ends an 11-year wait for the senior men’s team to win an ICC trophy. Their last win was the 2013 Champions Trophy in England.
