Meeting with PM, open bus parade in Mumbai lined up for Rohit Sharma's T20 World champions

MUMBAI: Beryl, a Category 5 strong hurricane in Barbados may have delayed India's T20 World Cup winning team's arrival back home by around 72 hours, but the day-long welcome party of India's first bunch of cricket World Cup winners since 2011 will be truly grand.

Soon after landing in New Delhi on Thursday morning (6am) in a special-arranged Air India aircraft, aptly named 'AIC24WC' (it was the most tracked flight in India on Wednesday), the team will be hosted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence from 10 am to noon. Rohit Sharma & Co will then fly to Mumbai, and after their arrival at 2pm, will proceed straight to NCPA at Nariman Point.
