Are you still buzzing after India’s win in T20 World Cup 2026? Cricket movies in Bollywood will keep the celebration going

Can’t sleep after last night? And we can’t. India have just beaten New Zealand by 96 runs in the final of the 2026 T20 World Cup, with Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan and Jasprit Bumrah putting on a display that Ahmedabad will never forget. One hero after another, history is in the books, and the country is abuzz. You can keep the spirit alive with Bollywood cricket movies, which help you remember why this game is everything to us.

India’s first ever World Cup win and the moment that changed cricket forever. Kabir Khan’s masterpiece takes you straight back to 1983, when no one gave India a chance and Kapil Dev said hold my bat. Ranveer Singh became Kapil Dev in every sense of the word – the golden arm, the unwavering faith and the audacity to win the World Cup against the mighty West Indies. Deepika Padukone and Pankaj Tripathi shine in supporting roles that pack a real emotional punch. Sweat, sacrifice and the famous trophy lift await on Netflix and Hotstar. If that underdog victory doesn’t give you goosebumps all over your body, check your pulse. Every cricket fan owes this watch.

From Ranchi Railway box office to World Cup winning captain, no one glows quite like Mahi. The Neeraj Pandey biopic is one of the most powerful sports films ever made, and Sushant Singh Rajput has that helicopter shot and those icy veins that finish so perfectly that they still give you goosebumps. Kiara Advani adds warmth and heart to a story that is already full of both. Gritty, emotional and real, not glossy Bollywood, just honest. Watch the incredible journey of your favorite captain, only on Apple TV.

There is no scenario. There are no dramatic liberties. Only Sachin Tendulkar’s voice guides you through a journey that belongs to a generation. Director James Erasto mixes real archival footage with personal voiceovers, first knocks, Desert Storm, and 2011 World Cup tears, and the result is something that doesn’t try to be a movie; It’s only one. God of cricket, unfiltered. Family hour will have everyone in the room quietly wiping their eyes and pretending to be something they’re not. Celebrate the legendary journey of the Little Master, now on Prime Video.

Cricket, controversy and a career that refused to be simple. ‘Azhar’ delves deep into the life of former Indian captain Mohammad Azharuddin, one of the most talented and complex characters the game has ever seen. Tony D’Souza directs with Emraan Hashmi filling in for Azhar, bringing elegance and human complexity to a man whose story has never been black and white. Nargis Fakhri and Prachi Desai complete the cast that keeps things convincing throughout. A great watch for anyone who loves cricket with a side of real drama. Watch Azhar’s untold story on Sony LIV and Apple TV.

This story is different because it is the kind of cricketer rarely celebrated, the latecomer, the one who kept everyone waiting and then showed up anyway. Praveen Tambe made his IPL debut at the age of 41, and this incredible journey is told with all the heart it deserves. Director Jaiprad Desai keeps the film grounded and realistic, with Shreyas Talpade giving a performance that will make you sweat profusely. Truly inspiring and proof that cricket doesn’t care how old you are if you have the skill. Watch the unexpected comeback story in cricket, only on Hotstar.

He was born deaf and mute in a small village and had one ambition to play football in India. Director Nagesh Kukunoor comes up with something so pure and earnest, that it remains timeless even now. Shreyas Talpade plays an exceptional role in the lead role, with Naseeruddin Shah playing the role of a coach who finds redemption in Iqbal’s journey. No frills, wholehearted, one of the best sports movies ever made in this country. Support the underdogs on ZEE5 and Prime Video.

Some returns are not all glorious, but rather they are a father’s promise to his son. A retired Ranji cricketer in his late thirties, broken by life and forgetting the game, takes up his bat once again to prove himself and grant one wish to his son. Director Gautam Tinnanuri has brought something exceptional out of Shahid Kapoor, a performance so raw and honest that it stays with you long after the credits roll. Mrunal Thakur is great alongside him. Keep the tissues close, this one earns every tear. Feel every moment back with Jersey on Netflix.
