Team India skipper and the secretary of the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India), Jay Shah, recently went viral after they took the T20 World Cup 2024 trophy to the Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai. The visit highlighted the importance of the win and what it means for the whole team. 

It is worth noting that India’s T20 World Cup win in the USA and the West Indies was the side’s first since 2007, and the Siddhivinayak temple is well known to be a spiritual destination for celebrities and devotees alike to host a special pooja for the silverware. 

Team India’s arrival in the country from Barbados was celebrated like a festival across the country. Furthermore, the pictures of the trophy at the temple with Rohit Sharma and Jay Shah have quickly gone viral all over social media.
