New Delhi, March 10 – The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will host its annual awards ceremony on March 15 in New Delhi, where five Indian teams that won ICC trophies over the past year will be honored, said secretary Devajit Saikia.
The BCCI awards ceremony, titled 'NAMAN', will celebrate India's recent success in ICC events across formats and age groups, as well as honor the best performers in international and domestic games in the 2024/25 season.
"The BCCI Awards ceremony will take place on March 15 in New Delhi. We will invite all the ICC tournament winners, including the recent T20 World Cup champions, as well as coaches. In addition to the senior men's team, the senior women's team, the U19 boys side, and the U19 girls team, who won the trophy in 2025, will also be invited," Saikia said.
It is understood that the awards venue in the national capital will be a five-star hotel that is close to the airport, as the men's team players have to join their respective IPL franchises for pre-season camps ahead of the competition starting on March 28.
Saikia also said that the Indian squad that won the 2025 Champions Trophy will also be honored in the ceremony. "We will also invite the 2025 Champions Trophy winning team members. So, all the members of the five ICC trophies won by various Indian teams during the course of the last year will be honored at the awards night, and it will be a great evening," he added.
Previously, the BCCI announced a cash reward of Rs 131 crore for the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup-winning squad and support staff members. This is an increase of Rs six crore from the total prize money announced for the 2024 Men's T20 World Cup winning team.
"Regarding the prize money breakdown for the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup winning team, we will let you know soon. But the total amount of Rs 131 crore is an unprecedented amount given to any victorious Indian team by the BCCI. In addition to the winning team, all support staff and selectors will also receive this money," Saikia concluded.
