By IANS News January 25, 2023 • 20:41 PM View: 885

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Roger Binny believes the Womens Premier League (WPL) will pave the way for development at the grassroots level and get more women cricketers to play the game.

Binny's words come after men's IPL teams, five-time champions Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore, along with the Adani Group and Capri Global, won bids to own teams in the WPL after opening the financial bids on Wednesday. The inaugural edition of the tournament could be held in March this year.
