Jones believes the tournament in England and Wales will prove the biggest and most successful T20 World Cup yet, and can’t wait for the first match between England and Sri Lanka in Birmingham on June 12.
“This is the biggest ICC Women’s T20 World Cup ever, and it feels like a real milestone for the game,” she said.
“This tournament is a fitting celebration of how far women’s cricket has come, and through our broadcast, fans everywhere will experience the skill, drama and emotion that continue to drive the sport forward.”
Former India captain Mithali Raj also echoed the sentiment, highlighting the competitive aspect of all 12 participant teams.
“The depth of talent across the 12 competing teams is remarkable. Wherever you look, there are world-class players capable of producing moments that can define a tournament, and I can’t wait to share those moments with the world,” she said.
