sportstar.thehindu.com — September 30, 2024, 08:00 AM UTC

Summary: The Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 is set to begin on October 4 in the UAE, with India aiming for its first ICC trophy. India has had a quiet lead-up, with no international matches since July, while Australia remains a strong contender despite missing key player Meg Lanning.

Teams like New Zealand and Sri Lanka are focusing on experienced players, while Bangladesh and Scotland are looking to make an impact despite recent struggles. South Africa and England have shown promising form, with England benefiting from a pre-tournament camp in Abu Dhabi.

This year, the prize money has significantly increased, with the champion set to receive $2.34 million, marking a move towards equal rewards for men’s and women’s teams. The tournament promises to showcase the evolving landscape of women’s cricket.
