Led by Rohit Sharma, the Indian team triumphed over Australia by 24 runs in their Super 8 fixture, a victory that was eagerly anticipated by fans. This humorous and timely post from the Delhi Police isn't their first one into post-match celebrations.

Following India’s victory over Pakistan in an earlier T20 World Cup match, the Delhi Police had tweeted, “Hey, @NYPDnews. We heard two loud noises. One is ‘Indiaaa..India!’ and another is probably of broken televisions. Can you please confirm?” This post too went viral, demonstrating the Delhi Police’s ability to connect with the public through humor and sports enthusiasm.

As India prepares to face England in the semi-finals at Providence Stadium in Guyana, the nation continues to rally behind their team, eagerly awaiting more memorable moments both on and off the field.
