    Samoa Cricket CEO Sala Stella: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has confirmed that the next edition of the Women’s ODI World Cup, to be held in 2029, will feature 10 teams, marking a significant step in the tournament’s expansion and global reach.

    The decision, approved by the ICC Board in its meeting in Dubai on Friday, aims to provide greater opportunities for emerging nations and strengthen the competitive landscape of women’s cricket on the world stage.

    It comes on the back of India winning the tournament at home, with its 52-run win over South Africa in the final watched by 185 million users on JioHotstar, thus equalling the viewership of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 Final and exceeding the average daily reach of the IPL. Overall, the tournament recorded a reach of 446 million, the highest ever for women’s cricket.
