About
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) represents the most successful ICC-title-winning cricket board of the modern era. India have won two ODI World Cups (1983, 2011), three ICC Champions Trophies (2002, 2013, 2025), and three T20 World Cups (2007, 2024, 2026) — including back-to-back T20 titles as defending champions. India's rise as a cricketing superpower has been driven by a succession of all-time greats: Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev laid the foundation, Sachin Tendulkar became the sport's most prolific run-scorer, and Virat Kohli continued that batting tradition into the modern era. The Indian Premier League, launched in 2008, transformed world cricket by creating the most financially powerful domestic T20 competition and making India the sport's economic engine. India's home fortress — playing conditions at Chepauk, Eden Gardens, and the Wankhede that favour spin and pace — makes them almost unbeatable on home soil. Their current generation, led by Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav, continues India's tradition of producing technically excellent batters alongside world-class fast bowling from Jasprit Bumrah.
