WILL THE ICC WORLD CUP BE THE TIPPING POINT FOR WOMEN'S CRICKET IN INDIA?

- CHRISTINA MONIZ

NEWLY NAMED INTERNATIONAL Cricket Council (ICC) chief executive officer Sanjog Gupta believes the ICC women's cricket World Cup that kicks off on September 20 could be the tournament that would see "Indian women's cricket take the next big leap".

"A World Cup leaves behind a legacy and a culture that inspires generations, as we saw in the 2007 T20 World Cup or in the 2011 men's World Cup victory. Mithali (Raj) in multiple world cups, and in particular the 2017 tournament, showed that India has heroes beyond the men's team," said Gupta.
