In a first-of-its-kind appearance, the players from the championship-winning squad will be seen starting their victory lap with a spirited conversation that will capture the emotion of victory, reflecting on their grit, determination and the momentous pride that came with representing the country and winning the coveted trophy.

Talking about the same, host Kajol said, “When India won the 2025 Women’s Cricket World Cup, history was made in a way that went far beyond the sport. On Two Much, we’ll have the honour of stepping behind the scenes of that incredible chapter with the super-talented Jemimah and Shafali. Through them, we’ll witness the nerves, the laughter, and the fire that turned a nation’s dream into reality. After playing the match of their lives for every woman who’s ever been told to stay in her lane, these girls look like they’re in no mood to hold back—not in their words, and definitely not in their shots. And we’re delighted to celebrate that kind of unapologetic energy on the show.”
