Indian players celebrated the T20 World Cup 2024 title win with the fans in Mumbai on July 5 during an open bus victory parade organised by BCCI at Marine Drive.

Team India celebrated the T20 World Cup 2024 title with the fans in Mumbai on Thursday (July 4). The BCCI organised an open bus victory parade at the Marine Drive after Indian players returned from Barbados following their seven-run win over South Africa in the T20 World Cup 2024 final played on June 29.

Lakhs of passionate Indian cricket fans attended the victory parade, and now in one of the videos going viral from that victory celebration, legendary Indian batter Virat Kohli can be seen asking Rohit Sharma to come from the back seat and pose for the T20 World Cup trophy with him in front. The heartwarming video of the conversation between the two greats of the game was shared by the Mumbai Indians’ official X handle on Wednesday, and within no time it went viral on the internet.

During India’s celebration after winning the T20 World Cup final as well, Rohit was taking a back seat before Virat asked him to pose for a picture with him and the trophy.

Virat, who struggled to score big runs in the T20 World Cup 2024 for India, was back at his best in the final and top-scored for the Men in Blue by making 76 runs from 59 balls. It was only due to his knock that India managed to post a total of 176 runs on the board, which proved to be enough. For his brilliant batting in the most important match of the tournament for Men in Blue, Kohli won the Player of the Match award.

After becoming the second batter to win all three ICC white-ball trophies, Virat announced his retirement from the shortest format of the game. He finished his T20I career as the second-leading run scorer.

On the other hand, Rohit also confirmed his decision to retire from T20Is after India’s title win. The 37-year-old right-handed batter, who became the first Indian to win two T20 World Cup titles and the first captain to win a T20 World Cup with a 100% win record, is the leading run scorer in T20Is and the second leading run scorer in T20 World Cup history.
