The ground-breaking deal, revealed during a cricket festival in Dubai coinciding with International Women’s Day, aims to accelerate the global development of women’s cricket. The partnership will cover major tournaments including the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 in India, Women’s T20 World Cups, U19 Women’s T20 World Cups, and the inaugural Women’s Champions Trophy in 2027.
