The BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) secretary and captain of Team India, Jay Shah, gained notoriety lately when they brought the trophy from the T20 World Cup 2024 to the Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai. The visit brought home the significance of the victory and its implications for the entire team.
Notably, India won its first T20 World Cup in the USA and the West Indies since 2007. The Siddhivinayak temple is a popular spiritual destination for believers and celebrities alike, and it is the site of a special pooja for the cutlery.
The nation greeted Team India’s arrival from Barbados with festival-like celebrations. In addition, images of Jay Shah and Rohit Sharma holding the trophy in the temple have rapidly gained widespread popularity on social media.
