Women’s T20 World Cup ‘breaks cricket into mainstream’ but money still an issue

The Women’s T20 World Cup has undeniably boosted cricket's popularity, highlighted by a record crowd of 27,000 at Lord’s. England’s success is a significant part of this surge, but financial disparities remain glaring as seen with the Netherlands coach who had to quit her job to manage her team. This tournament underscores the growing interest in women's cricket, yet it also spotlights the financial challenges that continue to plague the sport, raising questions about its sustainability and equal investment.
