Rohit Sharma, Rahul Dravid's Gesture For Reporters In Flight Wins Hearts

The Indian cricket team arrived in New Delhi after a 16-hour flight from Barbados, where they were stuck for three days due to extreme weather conditions. Hurricane Beryl forced the players to extend their stay in the island nation, prompting the Board of Control for Cricket In India (BCCI) to arrange a special flight for them. Not just the players and their families, the Indian board also got the Indian journalists, in Barbados for the event, on the flight, rescuing them from an unpredictable weather situation that had resulted in all flights being cancelled in the city.

But, what did the players do on the 16-hour-long flight? It has been reported that the Indian cricketers were stationed in the Business Class section of the flight while the reporters were in the Economy Class. The journalists were asked to not click pictures as the Indian players wanted the entire matter to remain private.

In what was an incredible gesture by the board, the journalists were also allowed to hold the T20 World Cup trophy and click pictures with it.

While most of the matter remains private, it has been reported that India captain Rohit Sharma, vice-captain Hardik Pandya, Yuzvendra Chahal, Suryakumar Yadav and head coach Rahul Dravid spent some time with the journalists in the Economy Class, in what has been labelled as an incredible gesture from them.

Jasprit Bumrah reportedly had little time to spend with others as he was constantly busy in babysitting his son Angad.
