New Team India’s T20I World Cup Champions Jersey Unveiled by Sanju Samson
The wicketkeeper-batter of Indian cricket team Sanju Samson shared a first glimpse of a special jersey designed to commemorate Team India’s Men’s T20 World Cup glory. On Thursday, Team India, led by Rohit Sharma, returned home to a hero’s welcome aboard a specially-arranged charter flight. Thousands of jubilant fans gathered at the New Delhi airport, undeterred by the weather and security measures, to greet their champions. The celebratory mood was palpable as the team flaunted the T20 World Cup trophy to the cheering crowd before heading to the ITC Maurya hotel.
In the photo shared by Samson on Instagram, the new jersey features a significant update: a second star on top of the BCCI logo, symbolizing India’s second T20 World Cup win. The jersey proudly displays the word “champions” emblazoned across the front, a bold reminder of their hard-fought victory.

The addition of the second star is a nod to India’s first T20 World Cup victory under the captaincy of MS Dhoni in 2007, linking past and present in a fabric of triumph and perseverance.
After a brief rest at the hotel, the victorious 15-member squad, along with the Rahul Dravid-led support staff, are scheduled to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi.
