Hilarious moment involving Hardik Pandya during victory lap??

Following an excitement-filled victory parade along Marine Drive, the BCCI felicitated all the members of the triumphant squad at the renowned sporting arena.

During the event, Team India stars such as Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Hardik Pandya talked directly to the crowd, sharing their experiences from the unforgettable T20 World Cup campaign.

Additionally, the team participated in a victory lap around the field, waving the Indian flag amidst the chants of “Vande Mataram” reverberating across the stadium. The Indian cricketers elevated the moment by joining the fans in singing “Maa Tujhe Salaam.”

But what caught the nation's attention was that Hardik Pandya became involved in a hilarious incident during the victory lap at Wankhede.
