WATCH: Indian cricket team welcomed with water cannon salute at Mumbai airport after T20 World Cup win

As the chartered Vistara flight from Delhi, with the Indian cricket team, arrived at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport on Thursday, they were welcomed with a majestic water cannon salute, marking their triumphant return from the T20 World Cup 2024.

The video shared by @voompla now has over 56K likes already, and numerous comments from fans.

Watch the video below:

One user commented, “So excited for them! My hubs and I are huge fans! Going to miss King Kholi and Sharma though!😞 Ready for IPL now! Looking forward to the new season!” Another user wrote, “SUPERB AND FANTASTIC.” A third user said, “CHAK DE ÍNDIA.”

In the aviation industry, the water salute is a ceremonial gesture reserved for inaugural flights, retirements or special celebrations to honour significant occasions.

The Indian cricket team, champions of the T20 World Cup 2024, arrived in New Delhi on Thursday after a five-day delay in Bridgetown, Barbados, due to a category 4 hurricane. They enjoyed breakfast with Prime Minister Narendra Modi before proceeding to Mumbai for a victory parade along the iconic Marine Drive.

The celebratory roadshow started from Nariman Point and travelled all the way along Marine Drive in Mumbai, where Wankhede Stadium is located.
