The Women's T20 World Cup marks the beginning of an exceptional summer of women's cricket on Sky Sports, featuring a historic first women's Test match at Lord's between England and India, starting on July 10, and the return of The Hundred later in the month. According to Jonathan Licht, Sky's chief sports officer for the UK and Ireland, this summer can be a defining moment for women's cricket by making many ICC Women's T20 World Cup matches available to everyone, thereby reaching new audiences, building fandom, and inspiring the next generation.
Sanjog Gupta, CEO of the International Cricket Council, stated that the ICC Women's T20 World Cup is a pinnacle event in global sports and a significant fan recruitment opportunity for women's cricket. Beth Barrett-Wild, tournament director, expressed her happiness that more people will be able to experience the spectacle live via the extensive Sky Sports coverage plan, with many of the biggest matches available to everyone.
