COVID19: Fate of 2021 Women’s World Cup to be decided in 2 weeks

New Zealand cricket chairman Greg Barclay said that the fate of Women’s World Cup which is scheduled to begin in February 2021 will be decided in two weeks.

His announcement comes after the postponement of men’s T20 World Cup.

The International Cricket Council on Monday announced the men’s 2020 T20 World Cup, due to be held in Australia this October and November, had officially been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The decision (about the ODI World Cup) will be made in the next two weeks,” Barclay told Radio New Zealand.

“…because if there is a need to postpone that event then obviously we need to know that sooner rather than later and likewise if it is to go ahead then we need to make a final decision so that we can throw all the resources necessary to run a first class world event in February.”

He added that though New Zealand is less affected by COVID19, there is logistical challenge.

“How do you get teams travelling around the world, they’ve got to hub through other countries and what are the implications of that?” Barclay wondered.

“Then getting them through the quarantine restrictions that may be in place and of course all of that comes with a cost and so there are budgetary implications heading into February (but) all of that is surmountable,” he added.

Indian cricket team’s captain Mithali Raj will be playing in the World Cup for one last time. She is the only captain to lead India to finals in two fifty overs World Cup.
