Watershed Moment: President Murmu Hails India’s Historic Women’s World Cup Triumph
“My heartiest congratulations to each and every member of the Indian women cricket team on winning the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025! They have created history by winning it for the first time. They have been playing well and today they got the result befitting their talent and performance. This watershed moment will take women cricket to still higher performances. I admire the way the girls have done India proud,” President Murmu posted on X soon after India sealed a 52-run victory over South Africa in the final.
India lifted their maiden Women’s ODI World Cup title at the DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai, defeating South Africa in front of a packed crowd. All-rounder Deepti Sharma starred in the memorable win with a brilliant all-round performance, scoring a fighting 58 and taking a five-wicket haul (5/39).
