Will the Indian women team victory parade take place in Mumbai?: After a year-long wait, the Indian women's cricket team finally won its first ICC World Cup title. Team India made history by defeating South Africa by 52 runs in the final. Now, all eyes are on whether the Indian women's team will have a similar celebration to the victory procession that marked the Indian men's team's 2024 T20 World Cup triumph. BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia revealed his plans for the event.

What did the BCCI secretary say about the Indian women's team's victory parade?

Actually, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia told news agency IANS that there are no plans for a victory parade at this time. "I am going to Dubai for an ICC meeting, and the rest of the officials will also be going. The celebrations will be planned only after I return," Saikia said.

Devjit also stated that since India has not yet received the Asia Cup trophy, he will now raise the issue with the ICC so that the trophy can be returned to India with full honor.

He stated that he will raise the matter of the Asia Cup trophy with the ICC and hopes that the trophy will be returned with full honor.

The 2025 Asia Cup trophy has not yet been received

On September 28, 2025, Team India won the 2025 Men's T20 Asia Cup by defeating Salman Agha's Pakistan team by 5 wickets at the Dubai International Stadium. However, after the victory, India refused to accept the trophy and medals because ACC President and Pakistan's Home Minister Mohsin Naqvi was to present the trophy.

Tensions between India and Pakistan have been rising since the Pahalgam terrorist attack. As a result, Team India refused to accept the medals and trophy from Mohsin Naqvi. After this, BCCI had complained to ACC on this matter and Mohsin Naqvi had handed over this trophy in Dubai itself, but till now this matter has not been resolved and India has not got the trophy.

Indian Women's Cricket Team: Will a Victory Parade be Held?

It is believed that a victory parade is unlikely, as when the Indian team wins a final match on foreign soil, a victory parade is usually held to celebrate the return of the Indian players and the victory. In the 2011 ODI World Cup, played between India and Sri Lanka, Team India won by 6 wickets. This match was also played in Mumbai, but no victory parade was held after that. It will be interesting to see whether a victory parade will be held.
