ICC will host the Women’s ODI World Cup this year starting from 4th March in New Zealand. Women’s world cups (WWC) are being hosted at a 4 years interval. In ODIs, 50 overs are being played by each team. In this edition, 8 teams will participate. In 2029, 10 teams will play. England won the 2017 world cup by 9 runs against India. Australia has won the world cup a maximum number of times which is 6 times followed by England which won 4 times.
Teams For WWC 2022
**ICC Head of Events Chris Tetley said, “If it becomes necessary, we would allow a team to field nine players as an exception for this environment and if they had female substitutes from within their management team, we would enable two substitutes to play, non-batting, non-bowling, but to enable a game to take place.”
New Zealand qualified automatically as they are hosting the WWC 2022. On the basis of rankings in ICC Women’s Championship 2017-20, teams that are qualified are Australia, England, India, and South Africa.
