Amol Muzumdar Finally Gets His Due as India’s Women Clinch Historic World Cup Win
Summary: After being ignored for so long, Amol Muzumdar finally shines as India’s women’s cricket team clinches their first World Cup title with him as their coach.
Amol Muzumdar's life has come full circle. He was once known as one of India's most brilliant cricketers who never made it to the national squad, but he is now the man responsible for one of Indian cricket's most memorable moments: the women's team winning their maiden ICC World Cup.
This Women's ICC World Cup victory has rewritten Muzumdar’s story. For years, he worked in the background, coaching, guiding, and shaping teams without much fanfare. But this win has put him right where he belongs, in the spotlight.
Speaking after the win, Muzumdar admitted that the feeling “still hasn’t sunk in.” He called it a defining moment not just for women’s cricket, but for Indian cricket as a whole. His calm leadership, strategic approach, and mastery of bringing out the best in players have all been highly acclaimed.
Captain Harmanpreet Kaur and her teammates credited him for creating a positive, confident atmosphere in the dressing room — one where every player knew their role and felt supported.
For Muzumdar, who’s spent years watching opportunities slip away, this World Cup wasn’t just about the trophy. It was about acknowledgement, being valued, and celebrated for the decades of love and effort he has put into the sport.
