The International Cricket Council (ICC), on Tuesday (December 15), announced the revised schedule for the 2022 Women's ODI World Cup which was earlier scheduled to be played in 2021 but had to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 8-team 50-over tournament will now begin on March 4 in New Zealand with the opening match to be played between the hosts and Qualifier while the final set to be played on April 3 under lights at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch.



Apart from the host New Zealand, Australia, England, South Africa, and India have already qualified for the tournament while the three remaining teams will be decided from the ICC qualifying tournament which is set to take place June 26-10 July 2021 in Sri Lanka.

The 8-teams will play 31 matches including the final in 6 cities, such as Auckland (Eden Park), Hamilton (Seddon Park), Tauranga (Bay Oval), Wellington (Basin Reserve), Christchurch (Hagley Oval), Dunedin (University Oval). The semifinals will be played at the Hagley Oval and Basin Reserve.

"The ICC has made a long-term commitment to elevating women's cricket as part of our strategy to grow and develop the global game. We are extremely proud of the significant progress we have made in increasing prize money for ICC events over the last few years, with the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2022 in New Zealand having $NZD 5.5 million dollars available in prize money, an increase of almost 60% on 2017 and more than 1000% compared to 2013", Manu Sawneh, the ICC CEO, said in a statement.



The defending champions, England, will begin their campaign against arch-rivals Australia on March 5 at Seddon Park while the last tournament's finalists, India will kick-off their tournament on Sunday, March 6 against one of the Qualifiers.
