Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday congratulated the Indian cricket team for their emphatic victory in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, calling it a display of "exceptional skills, determination and teamwork".

"Champions! Congratulations to the Indian team on winning the ICC Men's T20 World Cup! This remarkable triumph reflects exceptional skills, determination and teamwork. They have shown outstanding grit



through the tournament. This victory has filled every Indian heart with pride and joy. Well done, Team India!" PM Modi said in a post on X.
