T20 World Cup: After Australia crushed England by seven wickets at Lord's to lift their sixth T20 World Cup title, ICC chairman ICC Chairman said that women's cricket is in its golden era and that the tournament served as a reminder of why the sport is unmissable, thanks to the power, passion and class on display.
The ICC Chair presented the trophy to captain Sophie Molineux, who lifted the T20 World Cup title just six months into her tenure as captain. After surrendering both the 20- and 50-over titles over the past two years, Australia reasserted themselves as the world's best team, securing their 14th white-ball title.
“Congratulations to Cricket Australia on winning their seventh ICC Women’s T20 World Cup title with another incredible campaign. Huge credit to England cricket too - fantastic runners-up but champions in spirit. This tournament reminded us why women’s cricket is unmissable - power, passion, and pure class on display from start to finish. Thank you to both teams and everyone who made this World Cup so special. Women’s cricket is in a golden era,” Jay Shah posted on X.
