As the excitement mounts, the Indian cricket contingent embarked on their journey from Mumbai airport, marking the commencement of their campaign in the T20 World Cup.
In the first batch of Indian players heading to the United States, Rohit Sharma is joined by key players such as Jasprit Bumrah and Suryakumar Yadav, along with the coaching staff led by Rahul Dravid and Vikram Rathour.
Among the notable faces spotted at the airport were Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja, and Mohammed Siraj, showcasing the formidable strength of the Indian squad across all departments.
With the tournament set to kick off on June 1, India’s schedule includes highly anticipated clashes against rivals like Pakistan, USA, and Canada. The team’s quest for glory is fueled by a desire to end their ICC trophy drought, spanning back to their last triumph in the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy.
Notably, India aim to clinch their second T20 World Cup title since their historic victory in the inaugural edition back in 2007. Despite their consistent performances across formats, including appearances in various ICC finals, securing a major ICC trophy has remained elusive for the Indian team in recent years.
