Dravid, Binny, Mithali to Receive Lifetime Achievement at BCCI Naman Awards

Former India greats Roger Binny and Rahul Dravid will receive the prestigious Col CK Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award for their long-standing service to Indian cricket. Meanwhile, former India women's captain Mithali Raj will be honoured with the BCCI Lifetime Achievement Award for Women in recognition of her immense role in elevating women's cricket in the country.

Binny is being recognised for his contributions as a player in India's historic 1983 Cricket World Cup triumph, where he finished as the tournament's leading wicket-taker, and for his later roles as a coach, selector, and BCCI president. Dravid will be honoured for his outstanding playing career, scoring over 24,000 international runs, and his influential work as a mentor and coach, including guiding India to victory in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024.

Among other award winners, India's Test and ODI captain Shubman Gill will receive the Polly Umrigar Award for the 2024-25 season, while Smriti Mandhana will win the Best International Cricketer (Women) award for the fifth time.

India opener Shafali Verma and the recent U-19 World Cup winning captain Ayush Mhatre will also receive awards for their standout performances during the 2024-25 domestic season. The Mumbai Cricket Association will also be recognised for the best performance in BCCI domestic tournaments.

A major highlight of the ceremony will be the recognition of five Indian teams that recently won ICC titles, including victories in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025, and the men's and women's ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup events, spotlighting a historic period of success for Indian cricket.
