After the success and magnificent performance that the Indian Women’s team put in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025, it was pretty sure that PM Narendra Modi would meet the Indian Women’s team after their ICC Women’s World Cup victory. It was Wednesday (5th November). PM Narendra Modi shared his congratulations with the Indian Women’s team at Lok Kalyan Marg.
2nd November 2025 will go down as one of the historic dates not only in India Women’s cricket but also in Indian cricketing history. It was the day when our Indian Women’s team won their first-ever ICC Women’s World Cup after facing many heartbreaks in the past. They were playing the South African women in the final at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. Eventually, the Indian Women’s team won the match by 52 runs.

The Indian Women’s team squad, which included coach Amol Muzumdar, captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Deepti Sharma, and Shafali Varma, travelled to Delhi a day before to meet the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi. It all started with India’s team, Harmanpreet Kaur, remembering the last time they met the Prime Minister.
I still remember when we met you in 2017. At that time, we did not come with a trophy. But it is a matter of great honour for us that this time, for something we have been working so hard for so many years, we have brought the trophy here
The Prime Minister was very proud of the Indian Women’s team and applauded all players and management for their efforts in the World Cup. He also spoke about how cricket has an impact on our country. Modi later stated, ” If there is good happening in cricket, India feels good.” It is surely true because the game is worshiped in India, and cricketers are gods for many. Later, the atmosphere got a bit lighter in the room as they talked about other things as well.
