Indian Women Cricket League to be launched on March 8, International Women’s Day
A sports league is a group of teams or individual athletes who compete against each other in a specific sport. It can be as basic as a local group of amateur athletes who form teams among themselves and compete on weekends, or can include international players making large amounts of money, involving dozens of teams and thousands of players.
In women’s cricket, Australia’s Women Big Bash Cricket League, and Women’s Cricket Super League London have been making waves already. Parul Jain, the founder of Indian Women Cricket League, hopes that women cricketers will now be able to step out of the shadows and enjoy the kind of popularity that male cricketers have.
