In Lucknow, parents joyfully tossed their little ones in the air inside shopping malls while car parades took place in Ahmedabad well into the early hours of the morning.
The win brought a sense of pride and unity to a nation that lives and breathes cricket. The victory was not only significant for Indian cricket but also marked the end of Virat Kohli’s illustrious T20 international career with a silver trophy in hand. Over a decade of heartbreaks in knockout matches of ICC World Cups, including disappointments at home in 2014 and 2023, had finally come to an end.
