By ICC CEO Geoff Allardice, the first-ever Future Tours Program (FTP) for women is already a reality and will soon be made public. The participating countries have created a three-year plan for the event between 2022 and 25 years from now.
If available, it is typical for countries to complete ODI trips with a five-match T20I series. Before the world championships, teams may also participate in exhibition matches.

Allardice announced the release of the FTP for women from Birmingham, where the ICC’s annual conference concluded on Tuesday. “There has never been a long-term plan for women’s programs that provides broadcasters and viewers with certainty over who will play certain roles and when they may anticipate seeing their favorite characters.

Players and spectators of women’s cricket have long advocated for a more constant and robust calendar of matches. In the past, the absence of backing from broadcasters has stopped cricket boards from always being receptive to the proposal.
On July 23, 2017, however, everything changed. Since the 2017 ODI World Cup final, in which England defeated India by nine runs in front of a sold-out Lord’s, the ECB and the ICC have been more supportive of women’s cricket new update, and it has also proven to be a highly lucrative business.
With more than 85,000 people packing the MCG for the final of the T20 World Cup 2020 in Australia, the greatest live crowd ever for a women’s cricket match, it came as no surprise that audiences were once again full.
Due to an excess of skill, T20 contests have been added to the women’s game. The schedule for the Women’s Big Bash League consists of 56 league games, followed by two semi-finals and the championship game. Since its establishment in England in 2016, the Kia Super League has experienced a streak of very successful seasons.
By 2023, the Women’s T20 Challenge, which has been an exhibition since 2018, is anticipated to become a full-fledged Women’s IPL. After 16 league games in 2017-18, the Super Smash event in New Zealand was expanded to 30 league games followed by elimination rounds. Equal compensation for male and female cricketers was also a first for the organization.
According to Allardice, the women’s cricket captains he met at an ICC-hosted panel discussion in Birmingham on Tuesday were optimistic about the sport’s future. “According to the players, their schedules are certainly more frantic than they were a few years ago.
This Full Member country, whose CEO sits on the ICC’s CEC, asserts that women’s Test cricket is still an “optional” product that is not needed to compete in ICC competition.
India and South Africa are unsurprising, being the only two women’s teams to have played Test cricket in the past 15 years. However, the Netherlands is an unexpected addition to the list.
Since 2014, only 10 Women’s Tests have been played; however, since 2017, they have all ended in a tie, causing an outcry about why these games cannot be played over five days instead of the existing four. Greg Barclay, chairman of the International Cricket Council, praised the campaign for five-day Tests during a recent appearance on BBC’s Test Match Special.
Shubman Gill has an unmistakably tranquil demeanor. His wrath stemmed from his dismissals in the first two one-day internationals in the Caribbean, although he did not play any angry shots.
Due to clumsy running between the wickets, he was run out for 64 off 53 balls in the first game of the series. Attempting an unusual scoop off Kyle Mayers’ leg cutter when batting for 43 from 49 balls in the second match, he smacked it back to the bowler.
Gill came close to scoring a century in the third one-day international on Wednesday, but the weather in Port-of-Spain forced him to settle for a run-a-ball 98. Perhaps he left the field when India’s innings abruptly ended at 225 for 3 after 36 overs, much to the dismay of the Indian squad.
Gill was able to continue his winning streak despite two rain delays at the Queen’s Park Oval. In addition to avoiding losing his wicket, he eschewed low-percentage shots and showed urgency in the center of the field.
Again, the Port-of-Spain pitch had peculiar characteristics: even the fresh ball did not quite reach the bat, and cutters stopped at the batters. Gill, on the other hand, was familiar with the circumstance and double-checked his first cuts and pulls. Shikhar Dhawan and MS Gill’s opening partnership was worth 113 runs, and Dhawan took more risks.
When India was 115-1 after 24 overs, it began to rain. When India’s innings were trimmed to 40 overs owing to a nearly two-and-a-half-hour delay, Gill walked out and unleashed his T20 game. After scoring 51 runs off 65 balls, he upped his pace to score 47 runs off 33 balls over the following 33 balls.
Gill rushed out of the crease and hit Walsh for a six over the fence as soon as play restarted. Aside from that, he struck fast bowler Jayden Seales for four runs over mid-wicket. Left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein shovel-swept through the short fine leg with ease for four more.
Before the third one-day international, Gill expressed his eagerness to open the batting with Dhawan.
Gill remarked that being asked to perform first gave him a great deal of confidence. “It is an honor to have the chance to represent your country on the international stage. As a gesture of gratitude for the trust I had placed in the staff, I was happy to assist in any manner imaginable.
“It has been a joy to bat at the top of the order with Shikhar Dhawan. I am lucky to be able to benefit from his considerable skills since he has a plethora of knowledge and has performed over the world.”
Even though the third one-day international was essentially a dead rubber, India’s team management chose to stay with Gill instead of Gaikwad, who capitalized on his chance and once again repaid the team’s faith.
The weather stole Gill’s maiden ODI century, but he still had a great tour. Despite being excluded from India’s previous Caribbean tour in 2019, when he was dismissed from all three squads, he earned the Player-of-the-Series award for the ODI leg.
