India became the T20 world champions once again by defeating South Africa in the final of the T20 World Cup 2024 in Barbados on June 29, and the celebratory scenes that unfolded soon after victory were a mix of emotion and elation.
But while the scenes out on the ground were captured by the live broadcast cameras, what happened inside the dressing room wasn't seen or known until BCCI shared a video capsule on social media on Tuesday, which captured glimpses of the Indian squad celebrating their monumental feat.

At the end of the video, fast bowler Arshdeep Singh could be seen showing two pictures of his, one before the final inside the dressing room and one after the final.
"That's what belief can do," said Arshdeep, who ended the tournament with 17 wickets, which is joint highest with Afghanistan pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi.
India defeated the Proteas by seven runs in a thrilling last-over finish in the final. After scoring 176 for 7, India limited South Africa to 169 for 8 to clinch the trophy.
India's bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah was named the 'Player of the Tournament', while Kohli recieved the 'Player of the Match' award for the 76 runs he scored in the final.
It was India's second triumph in the tournament's history, having first won the title in the inaugural 2007 edition under the captaincy of MS Dhoni.
The title also ended India's wait of 11 years for another ICC trophy, which the team last won at the 2013 Champions Trophy.
