On Sunday morning, Modi spoke to the team on the phone, praising their excellent skill and spirit throughout the tournament. He highlighted the commitment of each player as highly motivating.
In his posts on X (formerly Twitter), Modi specifically lauded the contributions of outgoing head coach Rahul Dravid, captain Rohit Sharma, and star batsman Virat Kohli. Both Sharma and Kohli announced their retirement from T20 internationals following the victory.
Modi expressed his admiration for Sharma, saying, “Dear @ImRo45, You are excellence personified. Your aggressive mindset, batting, and captaincy have given a new dimension to the Indian team. Your T20 career will be remembered fondly. Delighted to have spoken to you earlier today.”
