The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 victory of Team India has been praised by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). In both the ODI and T20I formats, India demonstrated their dominance in cricket by winning handily and solidifying their position as the top-ranked team.
The team set out to be the best from the start, conquering great obstacles with a disciplined and courageous style of cricket. Their unbeaten streak in an ICC competition is a direct result of their strategic execution, consistency, and will to win on a worldwide scale. A display of tenacity and expertise under duress, the final match versus New Zealand was the ideal conclusion to this adventure.
Captain Rohit Sharma deserves the highest praise from the BCCI for his outstanding leadership and tactical sense, which helped guide the team to this momentous accomplishment.
One of the key factors in India’s successful campaign was his capacity to motivate and set an example. Notably, after India’s incredible victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup, this is his second consecutive ICC title under his guidance in as many years. These two honours solidify his reputation as one of India’s best and most accomplished captains.
The BCCI also commends head coach Gautam Gambhir for his contribution in moulding this successful squad with his fearless style and tactical acumen. The manner the players conducted themselves during the competition demonstrated his emphasis on strategic execution and self-belief.
The BCCI once again congratulates the players, coaching staff, support personnel and the selection committee for this phenomenal accomplishment.
