The team's arrival in Mumbai from Delhi was delayed, though, and their bus parade in South Mumbai was further delayed by the massive crowds, which caused logistical challenges. Eventually the parade got underway two hours behind schedule, but neither the chaos of the jam-packed roads nor the rain proved to be deterrents to the fans."The open-bus parade, which was delayed by two hours, started from the National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA) in Nariman Point at 7.30pm and went till the Wankhede Stadium," PTI reported. "The distance is covered usually in five minutes but it took more than an hour as the players savoured the evening."The squad landed in the city a little after 5pm local time. As per the itinerary shared by officials, a two-hour open-bus parade [was scheduled] from 5pm to 7pm. However, it was learnt that the team could only leave New Delhi by 3.42pm." Delhi to Mumbai is usually a 2-hour, 10-minute flight.The team had arrived in Delhi from Bridgetown, Barbados, at 6am, having flown in on a charter flight. They had had to stay put in the West Indies for longer than expected because of Hurricane Beryl, which had forced airports closed. After arriving in Delhi, the team was transferred to a hotel and later in the morning met India Prime Minister Narendra Modi for breakfast.The evening was reserved to meet and celebrate with fans, but with the thousands packing the route to the stadium, and evening showers in Mumbai adding to the logistical complications, there was a long delay before any celebrations could kick off. Eventually, the gates were closed at the Wankhede, with the stadium at capacity, and intermittent but heavy showers followed.PTI reported: "As the gates closed amid intermittent rain, extreme humidity and chaos of several thousand people arriving in the vicinity, those [who found] places inside Wankhede remained fixed to their seats even if there was scarcity of food and water."As the fans ran in all directions ... in the stands amid a heavy burst of rain, several pairs of footwear got left behind in the rush."While the wait [went on], rain kept pelting down with breaks but it could not force the fans off their seats in the stadium."Eventually the team arrived at the stadium around 9pm, and speeches from captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah and coach Rahul Dravid followed. There was also a lap of honour.India had won their first World Cup - ODI or T20 - in 13 years when they snatched a thriller against South Africa by seven runs in Bridgetown on Saturday. Since then, Rohit, Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja have announced they will not play another T20I, while this World Cup was also Dravid's last assignment with the team. 1Cr4Y 1579097592 719 Blog TODAYS WEATHER CmAC6yNVYAAAFUj Weather Forecast2 September 2023 Calendar Template With Moon Phases Yrmwz 4d58e564b4517a14a589324bb3a2ce36 Screen Shot 2023 07 03 At 1.19.55 PM ?fit=2048%2C945&ssl=1 Spring 2023 Farmers Almanac Weather Forecast United States 1546463318460 National12pm.1 5641 Primary WSI Jan Mar 1216 Us Temps F 1536x1024 Us Temps F 1536x1024 1 Th In Summer 23 Temp Forecast Feels Like Winter Or Spring 2023 2024 Farmers Almanac Winter Weather Forecasts United States Featured 864x576 Farmers Almanac Summer Weather Forecasts 2023 Usa EU Summer Severe Risk 2023 ?w=1024 01043 FarmersAlmanacWinter Delete Winter Weather Forecast For 2022 2023 ?resize=640 Weather Reveal Featured 6 6454d036205c9.image ?crop=1280%2C672%2C0%2C23&resize=1200%2C630&order=crop%2Cresize Maxresdefault Maxresdefault Pelmorex Corp Triple Dip La Ni A The Polar Vortex Deliver A S 1661877939b5df56a4172a8cd7ec9c7bd3ac98412f Maxresdefault GCw1fcKJJCRivzF0m8Jd.webp Farmers Almanac Winter Weather Forecast US 2023 Web Weather Reveal Featured Revised Spring 2023 Weather Forecast United States Europe Canada Jet Stream Pressure System Cold Temperature Snowfall Polar Vortex Prism Conus Tavg Anom JAN2023 Tuesday Rain JErry ?w=1120 Spring Map Social Sharing In March 2023 Rain Distribution
