Team India was honored with a special ‘Champions Ring’ at BCCI’s Naman Awards last week. The team, which won the ICC T20 World Cup last year, received a unique ring with each player’s name engraved on it.
BCCI shared a video showing the moment, where players were given diamond-studded rings in personalized boxes. In the video, boxes belonging to Rohit Sharma, Arshdeep Singh, and Suryakumar Yadav were seen.
The Champions Ring, presented by Dream 11, was crafted from pure gold and diamonds, with the Ashoka Chakra in the center. One of the rings had "Rohit Sharma" engraved on it. Under Rohit's leadership, Team India had an incredible T20 World Cup run, winning all their matches and reaching the final.
In the video, several players, including Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Sanju Samson, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Axar Patel, and Jasprit Bumrah, were seen receiving their honors at the Naman Awards.

Though they were on the verge of losing against South Africa, Suryakumar Yadav’s stunning catch in the last over to dismiss David Miller turned the game, helping India break their 13-year ICC trophy drought and winning the T20 World Cup after 17 years.
At the Naman Awards, legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar received the Col. C.K. Naidu Lifetime Achievement Award from ICC Chairman Jay Shah for his outstanding contributions to Indian cricket.
India shifts focus to Champions Trophy
Currently, India is preparing for the Champions Trophy and is also playing a three-match ODI series against England. They took a 1-0 lead after winning the first ODI in Nagpur.
India's Champions Trophy campaign starts on February 20 against Bangladesh, followed by a match against arch-rivals Pakistan on February 23, and their final group match against New Zealand on March 2. Since India won’t be traveling to Pakistan, all their matches will be played in Dubai.
