The Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 is fast approaching, and fans are excited to see their favorite cricketers in action. The tournament is set to take place in the UAE, starting on October 3. The opening match will feature Bangladesh Women taking on Scotland Women. Team India will be aiming for their first-ever Women’sT20 World Cup title in 2024, but the competition has historically been dominated by Australia, both in terms of championships and Player of the Match performances. All eyes will be on whether India can break that trend this year.
