2025 U19 Women’s T20 World Cup Will Drive More Progress, Says Snehal Pradhan
“It was a fantastic success. It was very much a commitment to equity between the men’s tournament and the women's tournament but also a leap of faith. Countries were still maturing in how developed their women’s and junior pathways were so it was a chance to see the work that the countries have been putting in over the last few years."
“Having 16 teams was a fantastic starting point in the first place and this will drive more progress in those countries. The ambition was around opportunity and quality. Having this Under-19 tournament meant there was parity between the men’s and women’s events,” she said. “You had a men’s and women’s 50-over World Cup, a men’s and women's T20 World Cup, and a men’s and women’s Under-19 World Cup as well. The fact that parity existed was a big statement.”
