History doesn't take place every day, and India fans have wondered for long whether it'll ever happen again for them. However, 2024 dismissed all the voodoo historically as the Men in Blue clinched victory from the jaws of defeat, triggering unprecedented celebrations throughout the country.

‌India have finally broken their eleven-year-long wait for an ICC trophy by lifting the T20 World Cup 2024 on Caribbean soil. The team put up a valiant defence after the Proteas had boiled down the equation to less than run-a-ball with five overs to go courtesy of some stellar bowling by Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, and Hardik Pandya.

The celebrations around the country matched the scale of the occasion as fans took to the streets across the nation to rejoice the historic achievement. The day would go down in Indian cricketing history for more reasons than one, with Rohit Sharma becoming just the third Indian captain to lift an ICC title. Moreover, Virat Kohli took the moment to announce and end to his decade-plus T20I career while Rahul Dravid finally became a World Champion after suffering two final defeats in the 2003 and 2023 ODI World Cups respectively.

Twitterati wasn't one to be left behind and enjoyed India's new World Champions tag in equal measure.
