24 Aug, 2024 By Editor

Team India showed grit and gumption to craft an excellent turnaround in Bridgetown, clinching the T20 World Cup after a staggering wait of 17 years. An extraordinary display from Jasprit Bumrah laced with Virat Kohli’s batting pyrotechnics saw the Men in Blue trump over South Africa in clinical fashion.

In a press-conference ahead of the T20 World Cup, BCCI secretary, Jay Shah exhibited his clairvoyance by stating that Rohit Sharma was going to plant the Indian flag in Barbados and that happened after the Men in Blue’s powerful performance against South Africa in the final.

Talking at the CEAT Cricket Rating Awards, Shah reiterated the exact same thing, adding to it the importance of love and blessing from the fans that is going to be crucial in India’s journey in the upcoming Women’s T20 World Cup and the ICC Champions Trophy.

Shah said, “As I told you in Rajkot, that we are going to host our flag in Barbados, and our captain did that. If we have the blessing of 1.4 billion people, then we can do the same in the Champions Trophy, World Test Championship final and the Women's T20 World Cup.”
