Having defeated South Africa by 7 runs in the T20 World Cup 2024 final at Kensington Oval in Barbados, Team India is the recently crowned Champions of the World. Originally scheduled to come back to India to celebrate their World Cup glory with supporters, such preparations were shelved when the squad was caught in the West Indies following a "Hurricane Beryl" striking Barbados coast.

More bad news for the Indian cricket team: as the situation with Hurricane Beryl in the Caribbean Islands gets worse, its classification has been changed to "Extremely Dangerous". 

It is now anticipated that Team India would land in New Delhi on Thursday at roughly 1:30 AM IST, or 4:00 PM local time in Barbados. Following Hurricane Beryl's intensification into a Category 5 hurricane and the closing of Barbados' airports and enterprises, the travel itinerary has been amended. Due to the extreme weather, the team's original departure time of 11 AM local time (Barbados) on Monday was delayed by two days. As a result, the team's safe return is of utmost importance.
