Women’s T20 World Cup: Women’s T20 World Cup is being organized in UAE this time. Sri Lanka’s women’s team has announced its squad for this World Cup. With this, all the 10 teams have been announced on Saturday. Sri Lanka has become the last team to do so. Sri Lanka’s team recently won the Women’s Asia Cup title. Chamari Atapattu has been given the captaincy of the Sri Lankan team. The team has performed very well under her captaincy. Let us tell you that this is going to be the 9th season of the World Cup.
Australia is the most successful team
All ten teams are ready for the World Cup. This tournament was earlier to be played in Bangladesh, but due to the violent protests there, the ICC shifted this tournament to the UAE. The most successful team of the World Cup, Australia, is once again considered the favorite for this tournament. They have won the World Cup title six times out of eight. Australia defeated South Africa in the final of the last World Cup. Last season, they won the World Cup title under the captaincy of Meg Lanning. In such a situation, Alyssa Healy will captain the team. This is going to be her first World Cup as a captain.
Expectations from Team India
Australia’s closest rivals in the title race are India and England, while the Indian women’s team is also looking for their first T20 World Cup title. Harmanpreet Kaur is leading a strong Indian team after a big defeat against Sri Lanka in the final of the Asia Cup 2024 in July. Harmanpreet Kaur would like to win the World Cup title this time. The Indian men’s cricket team won the T20 World Cup this time. Harmanpreet Kaur is ready to repeat that title win once again.
