Barbados has been dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl, and now there's an update about the Indian cricket team's delayed departure. Reports suggest that Team India's takeoff has been delayed by 5-6 hours from the scheduled time. Although the exact reasons for this delay remain unclear, it could impact their arrival time in India.
Current Situation and Timeline
According to the latest updates, Barbados airports are expected to reopen by Tuesday evening. Team India is now scheduled to depart at 6:30 PM local time, potentially arriving in India by Wednesday night at 7:45 PM. However, with the new delay, the team might reach India between 4-5 AM on Thursday instead. The team will be traveling on a special flight named "Champion World Cup 2024" and will land at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi.
Challenges Faced
Before this, Team India faced significant challenges due to Hurricane Beryl. Power and water supplies were disrupted, leading to reduced hotel services. The players had to eat on paper plates while standing in line, and a curfew-like situation prevailed, restricting any movement outside the hotel.
Recent Victory
Despite these challenges, India triumphed in the T20 World Cup 2024, defeating South Africa by 7 runs in the final match held on June 29.
