It’s a colossal achievement, rate it bigger than any other title: R Ashwin on India women’s WC triumph

Ravichandran Ashwin described the 2025 ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup victory by the India women's national cricket team as a “colossal achievement,” saying it should be rated even higher than any other World Cup India has won because of its potential to inspire girls to take up cricket and treat it as a career option. He also praised the team’s gesture of acknowledging past greats, something he felt the men’s team had rarely done, noting that under Harmanpreet Kaur’s leadership the women’s side overcame earlier disappointments and ultimately brought home the country’s first global trophy in women’s cricket.
