ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 begins on Tuesday as India hosts Sri Lanka in Guwahati.
Eight nations are competing as Australia, the defending champion and record seven-time winner, will hope to retain the title as the in-form India is expected to break its World Cup drought at home.
The tournament, which runs until November 2, will feature eight teams – India, Sri Lanka, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Bangladesh, Pakistan and England
While India was confirmed as the tournament’s official host earlier this year, Sri Lanka was added as a neutral venue for games involving Pakistan following an ICC-brokered agreement between India and Pakistan that allows both countries the option of playing their games at a neutral venue for a tournament hosted by either South Asian nation.
