The host, Amitabh Bachchan gave them a grand welcome and congratulated for their outstanding performance in the World Cup. The prize money that the players earned on KBC will be donated to the Institute of Social Development.

The dashing opener Smriti Mandhana took to twitter to express her delight after spending the time with the legendary actor after the show. Her tweet read, “Had a marvelous time being on the sets of KBC & working with wonderful people. Special thanks to @SonyTV for an amazing experience.”

Ever since the team has returned from England, they are being felicitated all over the country by their respective states. The team was specially congratulated by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi personally. Also earlier this week, Arjuna award was conferred to Harmanpreet who played the innings of her life (171*) against Australia in the semifinals.
