With Historic ODI World Cup Glory Behind Them, India Women Target New Highs In 2026

By IANS News December 25, 2025 • 10:08 AM View: 426

ODI World Cup: The Indian women's cricket team enters 2026 riding on unprecedented momentum after their historic triumph in the 2025 ODI World Cup, with a packed schedule offering multiple opportunities to cement their dominance.

The World Cup victory - India's first-ever senior ICC women’s trophy - has transformed expectations around the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side. It has also meant that the narrative around the Indian team has shifted from contenders to being capable of winning championships consistently.

Adding to it, India retaining its 2025 U19 Women’s T20 World Cup title in Malaysia and the A team winning a 50-over series in Australia meant 2025 will forever be remembered as a golden year for women’s cricket in the country.
