Women’s T20 World Cup winning captains list

Do you know who is the most successful skipper in the Women's T20 World Cup? Since the tournament is just around the corner, let’s revisit the full list of T20 World Cup winning captains.

UAE is set for some action-packed cricket as the Women’s T20 World Cup is set to start on October 3rd, featuring 10 teams all eyeing the tournament trophy. Over the years, the T20 World Cup has gained global coverage and received immense love, just like the men’s T20 World Cup edition, and there are chances that this tournament will thrive even more.

First played in 2009, all the editions have been phenomenal, with the first trophy going into England’s women’s cabinet. Australia has clinched the trophy a record six times, while the Indian women’s cricket team, New Zealand, and South Africa have been runners-up in different editions. All three teams will look to change their results this time around.

Speaking more about the Indian women’s team, Harmanpreet Kaur is set to lead the team once again. It’s worth noting that under her captaincy, India reached the finals of the T20 World Cup in 2020. Since captaincy roles are always crucial in this sport, the teams that have won the Women’s T20 World Cup have had captains who did a wonderful job. See the full list of the skippers who led their teams to triumph.
