India

The nickname Men in Blue follows India wherever the national cricket team plays, and Eden Gardens, with a listed capacity of 68,000, is the home ground attached to it. Because the side represents a country rather than a city or a franchise, its identity rests on the badge and on the crowds that gather for home fixtures. A head coach and an honours list complete the picture.

The India national cricket team's honours span the sport's leading competitions: the Cricket World Cup, the T20 World Cup, the Champions Trophy, the World Test Championship, the Asia Cup and an Asian Games gold, with World Cup years recorded from 1983. The ICC Test Championship and the ICC ODI Championship appear on that list too. Gautam Gambhir holds the head coach role, and the season listed is 2026/27.
