Kerala Assembly on Monday congratulated the Indian cricket team on its T20 World Cup win, calling it an inspiration for coming generations.

India ended their 11-year wait for a global trophy on Saturday, with a seven-run win over South Africa to emerge champions in Barbados.

Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan lauded the team, stating that Indian cricket has the ability to unite the nation.

'Even though our favorite Sanju Samson didn't get a chance to play, his presence in the team makes our state proud. Indian cricket has the power to unite the nation. We wish to achieve similar achievements in other sports as well,' Vijayan said.

Leader of Opposition V D Satheesan echoed these sentiments, calling the victory a beacon of inspiration.

'The comeback in the final match exemplified our fighting spirit. It is a success that will inspire generations to come,' he said.

This marks India's second T20 World Cup win, the first being in 2007 under M S Dhoni's leadership, and the first major trophy since the 2013 Champions Trophy.
