Playing WPL Before T20 WC Will Benefit Team India: Irfan Pathan
T20 World Cup: Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes the upcoming season of the Women’s Premier League will play a crucial role in India’s quest for a maiden T20 World Cup title, as the women’s team heads into 2026 after ending their long wait for a ODI World Cup crown.
Pathan feels that playing in the WPL will give Indian players the game time and confidence they need ahead of the ICC tournament.
"Girls now play a lot more cricket, and that depth gives the team plenty of options, especially if injuries crop up, because you have ready-made backups. This current pool of players is something you simply didn’t see ten years ago,' Pathan said on JioStar.
