Mumbai Indians celebrate IPL 2019 win in style with open-bus parade

Mumbai Indians players took part in a victory parade in an 'open bus' on the streets of south Mumbai on Monday.

The Rohit Sharma-led team defeated an equally strong Chennai Super Kings by one run in an edge of the seat thriller Sunday night in Hyderabad and as veteran Lasith Malinga trapped Shardul Thakur in front of the wicket, celebrations began in the MI 'Dugout' and camp.

The celebrations continued on Monday with members of the squad and support staff travelling in an open bus from Antilla (the residence of Ambanis who own the team) to Trident (the team hotel) in south Mumbai, with fans lining up to cheer them on.

Veteran Yuvraj Singh was seen holding the IPL trophy even as a few fans chanted 'Bumrah Bumrah' along the way.

Team owner Nita Ambani was also seen on the bus.

Malinga was also seen waving to the crowd and head coach Mahela Jayawardene was seen holding the coveted cup.
