The newly unveiled MCA Sharad Pawar Cricket Museum at Wankhede Stadium, while lauded for its design and exhibits, has stirred debate over its naming. Viren Rasquinha's comment sparked discussion about honoring administrators versus players. The museum celebrates Mumbai's cricketing history, featuring interactive displays and memorabilia, opening to the public on September 22, 2025.

Sunil Gavaskar was overwhelmed as his statue was unveiled at Wankhede Stadium, alongside Sharad Pawar. Gavaskar donated his 'lucky' Dadar Union cap, worn during India's 1981 Melbourne Test win, to the MCA museum. He expressed gratitude to the MCA, calling it his 'mother' in cricket, and reminisced about his 10,000th Test run, which inspired the statue.
