In 1844, Canada and the United States played the world’s first international cricket match.

England won the first women’s World Cup event, which took place in 1973.

There will be eight teams competing in the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2022. The tournament was originally set to take place in early 2021, but it was forced to be postponed until March of this year due to coronavirus-related travel restrictions that prevented the teams from entering New Zealand.

Overseas players have to go through a 10-day isolation period and follow strict “bubble” health requirements.
