The ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 get underway on October 3 with a game between Bangladesh and Scotland. The Indian women's cricket team would be in action on October 4 against New Zealand. The women's team of India has faced immense hurdles in ICC tournaments. They finished runner-up both in the ODI World Cup twice in 2005 and in 2017. They were the finalists in the 2020 T20 World Cup but could not be crowned champion. The Indian team, led once again by Harmanpreet Kaur, will look to overcome past disappointments and make history. Ever since the Indian men's cricket team emerged victorious in the T20 World Cup in June, people have high hopes for the women's team as well.
