Sanju Samson, the Indian cricket team’s wicketkeeper-batter, revealed the first look at a unique jersey created to honor Team India’s triumph in the Men’s T20 World Cup. Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, took a specially scheduled charter flight on Thursday and arrived home to a hero’s welcome. Thousands of exuberant supporters flocked to the airport in New Delhi, unfazed by the inclement weather and security protocols, to welcome their winners. Before making their way to the ITC Maurya hotel, the players showed off the T20 World Cup trophy to the enthusiastic spectators.
A second star, which represents India’s second T20 World Cup victory, sits atop the BCCI emblem in the new jersey, as shown in the Instagram snapshot that Samson posted. The phrase “champions” is boldly displayed across the front of the shirt, serving as a proud reminder of their hard-earned success.
The inclusion of the second star is a tribute to India’s 2007 victory in the T20 World Cup, which came about thanks to MS Dhoni’s captaincy. It weaves together the past and present in a tale of resilience and victory.
The winning 15-member team and the Rahul Dravid-led support staff will visit Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi following a short stay at the hotel.
