The T20 World Cup-winning Indian cricket team arrived in New Delhi from Barbados on Thursday. Fans had lined up outside the airport to welcome the players, despite the rain and heavy security that kept them at a distance.
The departure from Barbados was delayed due to Hurricane Beryl. "The team will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi at 11 am at his residence. After this, the team will fly to Mumbai for a ceremony," said BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla.
