MCA Allows Free Entry For Fan At Victory Parade As Bus Awaits Champions Ahead Of Celebration

Mumbai Cricket association has made it free of cost for fans to enter Wankhede stadium for victory parade on Thursday evening. The BCCI has arranged a 1 km victory parade from Nariman Point to Wankhede followed by a small ceremony at Wankhede Stadium. The event is scheduled to start at 4 pm.

Mumbai Police have advised commuters to avoid the route during the victory progression as traffic arrangements will be in place from 3 pm to 9 pm on Thursday.

“A grand victory parade is organised on July 4, 2024 for the Indian cricket team, winner of the T20 World Cup at Marine Drive. To avoid inconvenience to the commuters, following traffic arrangements will be in place from 3 pm to 9 pm today,” Mumbai Traffic Police wrote on X.

Ahead of the historic victory progression of India’s second T20 World Cup title in Mumbai, the special open-top bus is gearing up for the extravaganza evening in the city.

The champions will be driven around the city in a specially designed bus, making the occasion a visually spectacular and appropriate celebration of the team’s victory. The team is scheduled to arrive in Mumbai in the afternoon following their meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence in the morning.

India pipped South Africa in a nail-biting T20 World Cup final by seven runs to end their 11-year-long ICC title drought in Barbados last week.
