ICC women's T20 World cup 2023 Discussion Thread

[Sithara007]

I would agree especially that both Australia's batting and bowling line-ups are currently the strongest line-up. Although my mistake was to rely on England and I lost the semi-final match. Still, I wouldn't call any of them bad, they are also the second strongest team among the ICC women's teams currently. Australia are at the top with 302 rating points despite playing six games less than them, while England are second with 282 points and South Africa are fifth with 253 rating points. I think it will be very difficult for other teams to touch the Australia team in terms of rating points as well, they are leading with many rating points not only in T20 format but also in ODI format.  To say that the Australia women's team is now a huge monster compared to other teams in the ICC.

Other teams need time to catch up with Australia. And the credit must be given to Cricket Australia for the excellent support being provided to women's cricket over the years. They came up with a franchise T20 league, when boards such as the BCCI laughed at the very idea. And the results are evident now. Many of the players in the world cup winning squad, including Alyssa Healy, Ellyse Perry and Meg Lanning have been playing top level cricket for more than a decade now. Others (say Indian women) doesn't have players with this much experience.

Indian women's team may not be like them but they are not far behind. If they gather more experience and get some better players then Indian women's cricket can be like Australia in the near future. BCCI is doing its utmost for the development of women's cricket. Increasing the scope of women's cricket especially with the implementation of WIPL is going to be a breakthrough for them. Indian women are now very inspired by this upcoming league. If this policy had been taken and implemented earlier, maybe Indian women's team would have had a chance to do better in a big event like the last t20 World Cup.

For namesake once after IPL BCCI conducted matches for the women's team, and that didn't gained the attention as it gets over within few days. Long back itself BCCI should've taken initiative for the launch of WIPL. Even more potential players from India could've been identified. BCCI doesn't give importance to Women's team same as that of the men's team. I believe Australian cricket board consider both the teams their national team. India Women team is no down to any of the teams, just because India lost the match by a small difference we're discussing that Australia Women were the best, if not everyone would be taking discussion in favour of India Women team.

It is not just their attitude towards franchise cricket. Indian women started playing regularly since 2020 or 2021. Till then they had a maximum of 2-3 tours per year. The quality of domestic cricket was so poor and it wasn't given any importance by the BCCI. But during the last 2-3 years, there have been a lot of improvement. But still, it will take many years to catch up with a team like Australia, who have been playing regular matches since time immemorial. The lack of experience was very evident in the way Harmanpreet Kaur got runout during the semi-final.

I have to say, I was very surprised with the quality of Cricket that were played by some of these teams. I watched several of the matches and it was way beyond my wildest expectations.  

I actually lost a bunch of money in the final, because I thought the South Africans would de thrown the defending champions on the day, because they were so good in their previous matches. (It is a pity that one of their best batters, where not fit enough to play in the World Cup, they needed her for those 16 runs difference in the final)

Well, congratulations to Australia.... and thank you for a very enjoyable World Cup!

There is big change in the women's cricket. Most of the teams played really well. In every tournament the semifinals and the finals have got big expectation. To the expectation every match was good to watch and no match went one sided. In every match the fight for win lasted till the final over.

With the season of WIPL the women's cricket will have more improvement as well as supporters. The next Women's world cup will have much more competence than this year's. South Africa should've done it, but some unwanted mistakes at the last moment made the team runner up.

Women's T20 World Cup 2023 ended with a great performance. Every team tried their best. Australia once again enjoyed the moment of winning of the World Cup. Where South Africa lost by a few runs and had to accept the runners-up award with a tearful heart.

The much awaited women's T20 cricket league tournament (WIPL T20) is going to start from 4th March 2023. Organized by the Indian Cricket Board, this tournament will play a major role in the development of women's cricket as well.

Women cricket have evolved and improved alot in last couple of years specially in Asia as they are also organising the league for development of cricket among women.
WIPL will be a great initiative and thar will have positive impact on women cricket among Asian teams .

That looks like a very unfortunate way to get out. It can clearly be seen that she lacked quick decision-making and presence of mind since she should totally save her wicket if she had her bat dragged towards the crease which wasn't so far from where she was when the bails went off.

BCCI will definitely need to focus a bit more on their women's cricket team if they want them to progress in world cricket. With their condition being like this, we can't really compare them with Australia, who never lack behind when it comes to the presence of mind and playing quality cricket. A very big contribution to that is probably from their cricket board which does everything to push them forward just like their men's team.

Before the game of Indian Woman cricket was not a notable one and the BCCI doesn’t support them equal to their own country Men Cricket team.I had read some news like,they are forced to use the uniform of the Mens Cricket team.This I’ll treat of their team was changed and now the salary of women cricket team of a india was same as Indian Mens team.

They need to improve their game to face the big team like Australia.Because Australian woman team was treated as equal to men team over some decades.So they had huge experience in the international games.It’s hard for Indian woman team to give equal effort like Australia and the Kaur game was the finest example for this.

Their May be ill treatment of woman team in India as compared to Men team,this is not a new one to India alone.Most of the woman team of various countries still suffer this inequality.It not only in cricket team,it also applicable one to many of the sports for the woman team.This inequality is not based on the sexuality alone,this still occurring due to the attitude of the Men head on the top position.They do this to prove,the Woman are always down to the woman.Since most of the country based on the Male dominance society,this sexual inequality was common one.If they really want to prove themselves against such male dominate Society.They should improve the game very well in short period of time.
