Ishan Kishan received a grand welcome in his hometown of Patna after India's World Cup triumph. While answering a flurry of questions from the reporters, the Indian southpaw declined to answer a question on former cricketer Kirti Azad's controversial tweet.

After India's T20 World Cup win, Indian captain Suyakumar Yadav and coach Gautam Gambhir, along with ICC Chairman Jay Shah, took the trophy to a Hanuman temple near the venue. This gesture did not go well with Trinamool Congress MP and 1983 Cricket World Cup-winning team member Kirti Azad.
