Mumbai, India – Diwali fireworks and cricket cheers joined hands as the Indian women’s cricket team clinched a historic win at the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025. The final, held at DY Patil Stadium in Nerul, Navi Mumbai, saw India edge past South Africa to claim the trophy, sparking spontaneous celebrations across the city’s buzzing streets.
The victory moment caught the attention of Bollywood’s biggest stars. Actor Vicky Kaushal, actress Anushka Sharma, and Shraddha Kapoor all posted congratulatory messages on Instagram. Shraddha shared the scoreboard screenshot and wrote, “For decades we only heard about 1983 — now we have our own moments. Thank you, girls! This win echoes across generations.”
Anushka, whose wedding to cricketer Virat Kohli boosts her public profile, celebrated the triumph by calling it a “momentous achievement.” She added, “You champions!! SUCH A momentous achievement.”
Vicky highlighted the key performer, Shafali Verma, who delivered the game‑winning innings. “Made the game. Changed the game. What a rockstar! @shafalisverma17,” he texted in a story photo of the young batter.
India’s triumph not only breaks a long‑standing void in international cricket but also lifts memories of past Indian men’s squads that struggled to capture global glory in 2003, 2011, and 2023. Fans now can celebrate with pride and look forward to a bright future for women’s sport in the country.
The win marks a new chapter in Indian cricket history and sets the stage for higher expectations in upcoming international tournaments.
