New Delhi: Wicketkeeper Sanju Samson shared the first glimpse of a special jersey that Team India might don during their feliciation ceremony and the open-top bus parade in Mumbai.
The Rajasthan Royals captain posted the photo of the specially-designed blue jersey from the team hotel in New Delhi. The T20 World Cup champions returned home in a chartered plane on Thursday.
Celebratory mood gripped the capital city as thousands of fans turned up at the New Delhi airport to give a hero’s welcome to Rohit Sharma and his men.
Samson posted a picture of the new jersey on Instagram. It has a big change: a second star above the BCCI logo, which represents India’s victory in the T20 World Cup twice. The phrase “champions” is boldly displayed across the front of the shirt, serving as a proud memory of their hard-fought success.
The inclusion of the second star pays homage to India’s 2007 victory in their inaugural T20 World Cup, which was won under MS Dhoni’s captaincy, uniting the past and present in a thread of determination and success.
