ODI Women’s World Cup History

The history of the Women’s Cricket World Cup is long and full of major changes in women’s cricket. The very first event was held in 1973 in England, even two years before the men’s World Cup. This made it the oldest world championship in women’s sport. From that point, the tournament grew step by step into today’s ICC Women’s World Cup 2025, which fans are following with interest.

The format was different in the early years with league tables instead of knockouts. The number of ODI Women’s World Cup teams expanded as more countries joined in the event over time. Eleven teams were part of the tournament by 1997 and it was the highest ever. After placing second in second in 1993, 1997, New Zealand became the champion for the first time in 2000 at home and broke the long run streak of Australia and England.

The ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 start date has already been fixed on an earlier basis, whereas in previous decade tournaments, this schedule was uncertain. With the 2025 Women's World Cup schedule clear, fans can now plan their matches accordingly and enjoy every match. Australia has been the most successful ODI Women's World Cup team with having won a total of seven ODI World Cup titles, followed by England in the list with four trophies.

Fans are excited than ever about this tournament and are closely following every ICC Women's World Cup match. This shows that the event has truly become global, expanding with each subsequent ICC Women's World Cup season.

They have onboarded top brands such as Google Gemini, Google Pay, Google Android, Google Pixel, Hindustan Unilever (Rexona), SBI and IGI. Title slots are valued between ₹20 crore and ₹35 crore. The ICC will operate standalone sponsorships for women's tournaments from 2025 onwards and separate from the men's tournaments.
