This reward recognizes the contributions of the players, coaching staff, support staff, and the men’s selection committee in securing the prestigious title.
Team India bounced back from their 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup final heartbreak with a second consecutive white-ball title, following their ICC T20 World Cup 2024 win. On March 9, 2025, India defeated New Zealand by four wickets in the Champions Trophy final in Dubai, solidifying their dominance in world cricket.
In an official statement, the BCCI expressed pride in India’s remarkable tournament run, crediting their consistent performances and strategic execution under captain Rohit Sharma.

Devajit Saikia, BCCI Honorary Secretary: “India’s dominance in white-ball cricket is the result of years of hard work. This victory cements our top ranking, and we are confident that the team will continue to set new benchmarks in global cricket.”
Rajeev Shukla, BCCI Vice-President: “This reward is a tribute to the team’s outstanding performance. Their composure under pressure is an inspiration for aspiring cricketers across the country.”
Prabhtej Bhatia, BCCI Treasurer: “The BCCI remains committed to providing the best infrastructure and resources to help Indian cricket maintain its global supremacy. This triumph further showcases the depth of talent in Indian cricket.”
Rohan Gauns Dessai, BCCI Honorary Joint Secretary: “Team India looked solid throughout the tournament, and their final against New Zealand was a spectacular game that brought immense joy to fans across the world.”
India’s journey to the Champions Trophy title was marked by a series of dominant victories:
– Beat Bangladesh by 6 wickets
– Beat Pakistan by 6 wickets
– Defeated New Zealand by 44 runs
– Overcame Australia by 4 wickets in the semi-final
