Indian Team Return Delay: The Indian cricket team is still stuck in Barbados. Team India won the T20 World Cup 2024 title by playing the final match in Barbados. The final match was played on Saturday, June 29, after which the cyclone that came there spoiled the whole game and Team India was forced to stay in Barbados. Due to the storm, the airport of Barbados was closed and curfew-like conditions prevailed there. Team India was earlier supposed to leave from there last Tuesday, but could not.
Media reports that came out a day ago said that BCCI has arranged a special flight for Team India, which was to leave for their return on Tuesday and reach Delhi by Wednesday evening. However, now it seems to be getting delayed further.
Sports journalist Vimal Kumar told X that by now Team India should have boarded a chartered flight to Delhi but it is getting delayed further. He also mentioned that perhaps winning the World Cup was easier than going home. However, till now no official update has come from BCCI regarding Team India. Now it will be interesting to see when Team India is able to return from Barbados.
