In one of the most defining chapters in Indian cricket history, the Indian women’s cricket team lifted their maiden ICC Women’s ODI World Cup title, defeating South Africa by 52 runs in an electrifying final at the Dr DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The triumphant moment not only ended a long wait—after heartbreaking close calls in 2005 and 2017—but also marked a new dawn in global women’s cricket.

Recognising this monumental achievement, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced a massive ₹51 crore prize money for the players and support staff. BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia confirmed the reward, calling the World Cup victory a watershed moment poised to elevate women's cricket in India to unmatched heights.
