A landmark chapter in the history of adaptive sports is about to unfold as India and Sri Lanka gear up to host the inaugural edition of the Women’s T20 World Cup Cricket for the Blind from 11th to 23rd November 2025. This groundbreaking event marks the first-ever global women’s T20 competition dedicated to blind cricket.
The inaugural edition brings together six spirited teams, India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Australia, the United States of America, and Pakistan, who will compete for ultimate glory across two countries. Originally, Kathmandu in Nepal was slated to host Pakistan’s matches, but political unrest necessitated a venue shift to Colombo, Sri Lanka, ensuring players’ safety while preserving the tournament’s international integrity.
The action will now span three venues: Modern School Ground in New Delhi and Samprasiddhi Sports Estadio in Bangalore for India-leg matches, while the BOI Cricket Ground in Katunayake, Colombo, will stage fixtures moved from Nepal. The historic P Sara Oval Ground in Colombo will host the knockout stages and the grand finale, adding prestige to this milestone championship.
