That being said, the triumph wouldn’t have been possible without the calm strategist Amol Muzumdar, sitting in a vital role. In this article, read in detail about the Indian women's cricket team's head coach.

Who is India Cricket Women's Head Coach​​?

Following the departure of former Indian women’s cricket head coach Ramesh Pawar, Mumbai-born Amol Muzumdar took over the mantle in 2023. Replacing Powar, who was removed from the post in December last year as part of BCCI's 'internal restructuring’, Ranji-winning captain, Amol, as the head coach, saw the back-to-back Tests as India take on England and Australia at the Wankhede in December as his first assignment.

Notably, his life came full circle when, after 2 years of his appointment, Indian women finally ended the ICC drought, winning the maiden Women’s ODI World Cup in 2025, defeating South Africa women in the final played in Navi Mumbai. For Muzumdar, long regarded as one of India’s most talented players never to play at the highest level, the win carried deep personal significance.
