Full Schedule for 2022 ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup

After a year’s delay, the ICC Women’s World Cup 2022 finally gets underway in March next year. Being hosted by New Zealand, the eight-team tournament consists of Australia, India, England, South Africa who qualified based on the 2017-2020 ICC Women’s Championship along with West Indies, Pakistan, and Bangladesh who made it on the basis of their ranking after the Qualifiers were called off last month due to detection of the new Covid variant, Omicron while the host, New Zealand made an automatic qualification.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Tuesday announced the schedule for the big tournament which won’t be following a group system and instead would see each of the eight teams competing at least once against each other and the top four advancing to the knockout stage.

The host, White Ferns would be playing West Indies in the opening match at the Bay Oval in Tauranga which would be followed by a doubleheader on March 5 as Bangladesh would take on South Africa at the University Oval, Dunedin earlier in the day while the cricketing rivals Australia and England play later in the day at the Seddon Park, Hamilton and the other arch-rivals, India and Pakistan will be up against each other the next day at the Bay Oval. Being played across six New Zealand cities- Auckland, Christchurch, Dunedin, Hamilton, Tauranga, and Wellington, the league stage will go on till March 27 following the first semi-final on March 30 at the Basin Reserve in Wellington and the second on March 31 at Hagley Oval in Christchurch which is also the venue for the Finals on April 3.
