New Delhi: Two semifinal finishes and a runners-up trophy in the last three editions the Indian team will be aiming for their maiden Women’s T20 World Cup in Dubai when the tournament gets underway on October 3. The Women T20 World Cup 2024 was initially scheduled to take place in Bangladesh but due to safety reasons caused by political unrest the ICC was forced to shift the event to the Middle East. Led by Harmanpreet Kaur and with Smriti Mandhana as deputy the Women in Blue enter the tournament as one of the title contenders.
