After the felicitation, the players of Indian cricket team walked towards the fans and handed them signed balls before walking out of the ground. Some lucky fans also got selfies with players and their autographs as well.

The victory parade had kicked off at Marine Drive and concluded at the Wankhde Stadium, crossing a sea of fans who had gathered to celebrate the team's success.

This all took place only after Team India landed in New Delhi from Barbados and then visited the Prime Minister's residence for a scheduled meeting with him. The players then took a flight to Mumbai and landed there in the evening.
