Former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina urged the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) officials to retire jersey numbers 18 and 45. Notably, after winning the T20 World Cup 2024, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma decided to retire from T20I cricket, following which Raina asked the BCCI to retire their jersey numbers.

Raina said that the governing body had decided to retire the number seven in honor of MS Dhoni and should do the same for Kohli-Rohit. He said that the youth should feel inspired by seeing the iconic jersey numbers and try to create a legacy for themselves. Along with this, he praised the Indian legends and thanked them for their contribution to Indian cricket.

Let’s see what Suresh Raina requested

I request BCCI to retire jersey numbers 18 and 45. Both these jersey numbers should now be kept in the office. The number 7 jersey has already been retired and now the same should happen with jersey numbers 18 and 45. Whenever anyone sees these numbers, he will get motivation. Jersey numbers 18 and 45 have won many matches for India in different situations. So now whatever player comes into the team, he should get motivation by seeing these numbers.

Team India celebrated the victory

The Indian cricket team finally returned home on Thursday after winning the T20 World Cup 2024 trophy. After winning the final match in Barbados, Team India could not leave immediately due to the cyclone. After reaching Delhi directly from Barbados by a special Air India flight, all the players of Team India left for the hotel, after which the team reached Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s residence at 11 am to meet him. After this Team India reached Mumbai.

Team India, which achieved an unforgettable victory in the T20 World Cup, was given a rousing welcome in Mumbai on Thursday. Team India’s victory procession was taken out from Marine Drive to Wankhede Stadium. Thousands of Mumbaikars gathered all over Marine Drive for this procession.
