The ICC Women’s World Cup will be played in New Zealand in 2022. It was initially due to be played in 2021, but it got postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. England won the last World Cup in 2017 by defeating India in the finals. Tammy Beaumont finished as the highest run-scorer of the tournament, whereas Dane Van-Niekerk was the highest wicket-taker.
A total of eight teams will participate in the World Cup next year. Australia, India, South Africa, and England qualified on Women’s Championship points, whereas New Zealand qualified as the hosts. Bangladesh, Pakistan, and West Indies took the final positions on ICC rankings. The Women’s Qualifiers were abandoned due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
