Considering the extent to which this was promoted (almost 2 years in advance) I’d say the crowd has disappointed.
They were aiming for the world record for the largest attended female sporting event, and at the end I think they’ve fallen 10-15,000 short, even with the very cheap tickets and the Katy Perry concert.

Pretty pessimistic way of looking at things, given this record wont last long. India will host a bigger final in the within the next 5 years when they will inevitably be given hosting rights to another world cup.

Considering that they had been loudly proclaiming for the last 6 months that they were going to break the all-time record, that final crowd number is a tad disappointing.
However, it's amazing how far women's cricket has come in the last 5 years alone. Well done to them all! It's been a way better spectacle than the tinpot T20 leagues that most new-age fans tend to go so crazy about.

This crowd needed India in the final, highest expat population in Melbourne.
I think you will find more English than Indian.

Always pro Indian there lol, tho its gotten worse in the past years.
I still think there are more English expats in Mel than Indians. Indians now the highest migrant group in the last couple of years.

Openers and Schutt lead Australia to fifth title
Alyssa Healy and Beth Mooney struck the highest scores in ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Final history as record-breaking Australia secured a famous fifth title on home soil.
Alyssa Healy (75) and Beth Mooney (78 not out) put on 115 for the first wicket
India were bowled out for 99 in their chase of 185
Megan Schutt (four for 18) finished as leading wicket-taker in Australia
A record-breaking attendance for a women’s cricket match of 86,174 watched on as Australia downed first-time finalists India by 85 runs at the MCG, with the openers setting the tone for a clinical performance.
The pair put on 115 and never looked back, with Healy (75) breaking record after record and lighting up Melbourne with a jaw-dropping display.
India’s bid to chase 185 was always going to be difficult, with leading wicket-taker Megan Schutt taking the first four-wicket haul in a Final to restrict Harmanpreet Kaur’s side to 99 all out.
For Meg Lanning, meanwhile, the greatest moment in her career is complete – following in the footsteps of Lyn Larsen and Michael Clarke in winning an ICC event as Australia captain on home soil.
Indian nerves were evident immediately and Healy ensured she pounced with three boundaries off Deepti Sharma’s opening over.
Two more fours off Shikha Pandey took Healy beyond 2000 T20I runs, and in Mooney (78 not out) she had her familiar and unflappable ally, making India pay after Rajeshwari Gayakwad dropped a tough return chance.
Still the Australians kept coming, Healy striking the biggest six of the tournament at 83 metres before repeating the trick down the ground to maintain the flying start.
Another straight four brought up Healy’s half-century from just 30 balls, the fastest in the Final of any ICC event, with India needing to stem the tide with 91 scored at halfway.
Three successive sixes over long on, long off and then cover took Healy to the highest score in a Women’s T20 World Cup Final while the opening duo combined for the second century partnership in the showcase.
Finally the respite came for India with Healy miscuing Radha Yadav to Veda Krishnamurthy at long-on, the record-breaking partnership ending at 115 within 12 overs.
Healy’s 75 featured seven fours and five sixes in the 39 balls but consistent Mooney kept on her merry way, reaching her 50 from 41 balls to end the 15th over at 142 for one.
With four overs to go, Australia already had the highest score in a Women’s T20 World Cup Final but captain Lanning (16) then fell to Sharma, caught at square leg.
And it was two in the over as Ashleigh Gardner – player of the Final two years ago – missed a straight one and was stumped.
India threatened to slow the rate with Rachael Haynes bowled by Poonam Yadav but Mooney kept going to carry her bat, surpassing Healy’s 75 to bag the highest score in a Women’s T20 World Cup Final.
The records didn’t stop there either, with Mooney’s total tournament tally of 259 runs the most scored by one player in a single Women’s T20 World Cup.
India’s chase started in disappointing fashion with Shafali Verma brilliantly caught behind by Healy off Schutt, who had feared facing the 16-year-old sensation in the Powerplay.
One became two as Jemimah Rodrigues could only chip Jess Jonassen (three for 20) to Nicola Carey at mid-on, leaving Kaur and Smriti Mandhana to begin the rebuild.
Back-to-back fours got Mandhana going but her bid for a third proved her undoing, chipping Sophie Molineux’s first ball to mid-on to leave India at 18 for three.
The captain found the boundary off Jonassen but perished next ball, a top-edge flying to Gardner who took a good catch just inside the deep midwicket rope.
For the first time in 15 matches, India lost four wickets in the Powerplay to make an already tough task even harder in Melbourne.
Sharma and Krishnamurthy (19) began the rebuild until the latter holed out to mid-off off Delissa Kimmince, ending a positive partnership of 28.
Richa Ghosh then came out to the middle, a concussion replacement for Tanya Bhatia who had to leave the field during her earlier batting effort.
The 16-year-old Ghosh (18) batted valiantly alongside Sharma but the required rate continued to rise with 104 needed from the last five overs.
Sharma (33) then holed out to Mooney off Carey as a professional Australia outfit did what they have done in four Finals previous, with execution of skills hitting perfection on the biggest stage of all.
Schutt finished with a four-wicket haul, including the final scalp of Poonam Yadav, with her 13 wickets the most in this edition of the Women’s T20 World Cup.
India finished all out for 99, with the 85-run deficit far from reflective of their efforts in the tournament.
But they’ll certainly be back. A side boasting more teenagers in the Final than any other before them has a bright future, with this just the start of what could be a shift in momentum for Kaur’s brave and bold team.

My favorite player and superstar Ellyse Perry was injured and did not play in the final.Had she played Australia would have scored 220+ and bundled out India for less than 80.

FICA Comment on Women's T20 World Cup
Commenting on the recently completed Women's T20 World Cup, FICA Executive Chairman Tony Irish said:
“FICA congratulates the players, ICC, and Cricket Australia, on the Women’s T20 World Cup. On the back of an outstanding spectacle, FICA also urges the game to continue to do more to prioritise the growth of the women’s game across more countries, including through the creation of viable career paths for players in more than just a handful of countries.”
FICA Chief Executive Tom Moffat said:
“FICA’s 2018 Global Employment Report highlighted some of the structural issues and imbalances that exist in the global game from a player perspective, and our 2020 report, due to be released later this year, will build on that."
"Some of the core issues continue to include firstly, the level of prioritisation of the women’s game and of players in each country, which is within the gift of every governing body around the world, and secondly, the capacity for each country to invest in and grow the game. This is hampered by the global economics of cricket, including the fact that the game’s money at global level is distributed in a manner that leaves many smaller countries at a significant disadvantage both on and off the field.”
“For the global game to continue to grow and build on the momentum it has for a sustainable and compelling on-field future, these issues need to be focussed on by the ICC and Boards. We urge them to work in partnership with the players collectively on that both domestically in each country, and at global level.”

Cricket fans have been warned to be aware of signs and symptoms of coronavirus after a man tested positive in the days after the T20 World Cup final at the MCG.
The Victorian government on Thursday confirmed six new cases in the state, bringing the total to 27.
The new cases include six men aged between 30 and 70 and all are recovering at home in isolation.
Five of the cases have a history of international travel, and one is a close contact of a confirmed case.
The health department has revealed one of the public exposure sites for the current cases is the T20 World Cup final at the MCG on Sunday night.
The match was attended by a crowd of 86,174 people.
The person sat in section N42 (level two) of the MCC Members stand for the match, with 5.15pm to 11.30pm the listed time for potential exposure.
“The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has advised of the patron’s diagnosis and has classified it as a low risk of spreading COVID-19 to surrounding members of the public and staff,” the MCC said on Thursday.
“The patron sat on Level 2 of the Northern Stand at the MCG in section N42.
“The DHHS recommends that those who were seated in N42 at Sunday’s event should continue to go about their normal routine, with an increased focus on hygiene measures, and should any flu-like symptoms emerge to consult with a medical professional.”
The MCG is set to host more than 80,000 fans for the AFL season opener between Richmond and Carlton next Thursday night.
That game and future events could be held behind closed doors should the government place a ban on mass gatherings.

But with the season to go ahead as things stand, the MCC has taken steps to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
“As a precautionary measure (the MCC has) undertaken intensive cleaning of the affected section,” a statement said.
The MCG is understood to be the second sport-related exposure site in Victoria after a fan attended a Super Rugby game at AAMI Park on Saturday night.
However, the Formula One Grand Prix circuit at Albert Park remains under threat with eight team personnel currently awaiting results of coronavirus tests.
“This situation is evolving rapidly, and we expect to see more and more cases of COVID-19,” Victoria’s Chief Health Officer Professor Brett Sutton said.
“For the virus to spread, extended close personal contact is most likely required. But visitors to locations where cases have been should be aware of the signs and symptoms of COVID-19.
“Close personal contact is at least 15 minutes face-to-face or more than two hours in the same room.”
Sutton told 3AW on Thursday that positive tests among F1 staff could lead to the cancellation of the race weekend.
