Viral video: A drought of 11 years for an ICC trophy can be finally put to rest by the Indian cricket team when they face South Africa in the final of the World T20 World Cup in Barbados on Saturday (June 29). The anticipation and prayers across the country are at their peak. The Indian fans, carrying the heartbreak of the November 19 loss to Australia in the 50-over World Cup in Ahmedabad, are praying with both hands folded. Different places in the country have seen different methods of conveying best wishes to the men in blue who are on the verge of ultimate glory.

A nation's heartbreak

The last time India had lifted an ICC trophy was in 2013 Champions Trophy in which MS Dhoni-led side beat hosts England in a thrilling encounter which was marred by rain, cutting short a 50-over match to a 20-over match each. Rohit Sharma-led team in 2024 will be looking to script history, thus ending a drought of 11 years.

Last year, the entire nation came together with a single heartbeat as India had faced Australia in the summit clash in Ahmedabad, however, India was outplayed by the rivals, thus bringing a major heartbreak for Indian cricket fans.

However, today, as the men in blue take the field led by cricketing legend Rohit Sharma, they will also carry in their hearts the wishes and prayers of millions of Indians from oceans apart in India.

The nation stands together again in anticipation

In a viral video, people from Bihar's Patna were seen chanting Hanuman Chalisa at Patna Veda Vidyalaya for India's victory against the South Africans who are also in the finals for the first time in an ICC tournament.

In a similar way, people from across the country extended their wishes to Rohit Sharma and co. Some edited videos expressing their expectations from the team in the massive encounter, while some others edited pictures and shared on social media.
