The International Cricket Council (ICC) has officially announced the schedule for the 13th edition of the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup.
The much-anticipated event will take place from September 30 to November 2, 2025, marking the tournament’s grand return to India and Sri Lanka after over a decade.
With matches spread across five venues—including M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, ACA Stadium in Guwahati, Holkar Stadium in Indore, ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam, and R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo—the eight-team tournament is set to showcase the best talents in women’s cricket.
Hosts India will kick off the competition in Bengaluru on September 30, igniting a month-long battle for supremacy. The knockout stage will feature semifinals on October 29 and 30, followed by the grand finale on November 2 in either Bengaluru or Colombo. Defending champions Australia, alongside powerhouse teams like England, South Africa, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and India, will vie for the coveted trophy.
As women’s cricket continues to expand its global footprint, the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup is expected to set new benchmarks for competitiveness and viewership.
