The Indian cricket team has become the T20 World Cup champion for the second time. Rohit Sharma's brigade has returned to India with the trophy of this World Cup. The first thing Team India did after coming to India was to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The PM hosted Team India at his residence. During this, the PM got photographed with Team India and the World Cup trophy.

However, during this time, Narendra Modi did not touch the trophy. He only held the hands of Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid. The trophy was held by Rohit and Rahul. Allow us to share the backstory with you.

This is the reason Why did not touch the T20 World Cup trophy?

One thing is said about the trophy and medal: That is, the trophy and medal are touched only by those who have won them. That is, only the team that has won the trophy and the player who has won the medal should touch them. Perhaps that is why the PM did not touch the trophy and just held the hands of Rohit and Rahul. Team India has also presented a jersey named NaMo to PM Modi.

Rohit-Virat waved the trophy

Team India reached Wankhede Stadium via Nariman Point, Marine Drive. During this time, a huge crowd of fans was seen on the streets of Mumbai. There was such a huge crowd of spectators that even the players of Team India were surprised. The players were sometimes going in front of the bus and sometimes going to the side and waving their hands towards the fans and dancing fiercely. Then came that moment which doubled the happiness of the fans.

Virat Kohli was holding the World Cup trophy. He then called Rohit and said something while placing his hand on his shoulders. Then both of them together waved the World Cup trophy in front of the fans. Seeing this, the fans started shouting louder.

Rohit and Virat Both retired

These moments are special for Rohit and Virat. After defeating South Africa in the T20 World Cup final, the Indian team gave the fans the opportunity to celebrate which they had been waiting for 17 years. But after this came sadness. Virat Kohli, who became the Player of the Match after playing an innings of 76 runs in this match, while accepting the award, said that he is retiring from T20 International. In the press conference held after this match, Rohit also announced that he is also retiring from T20 International.
