Host Australia and India will get the action underway when they meet at Sydney Showground on 21 February.

This year’s tournament will be the seventh edition of the Women’s T20 World Cup to be played, with 14 players set to continue their record of playing in every event since the inaugural competition 11 years ago.

The tournament has been dominated by Australia, with the current hosts having won four out of the previous six editions and finishing runner up to West Indies in 2016.

One team will also be making history in the tournament, with Thailand qualifying for an ICC event for the very first time, giving all 15 of their players debuts on the global stage.
