Cricinfo is practically CricIndia.

They put their events ahead of other events.

There is no way Women's IPL is better than CT.

Great match between RCB and MI .

WPL is second biggest league after the IPL

Women's IPL is worse than Nepal Premier League.

No disrespect to the ladies. I am just stating facts.

Australia Women’s team will beat Bangladesh Men’s team 8/10 times.

I don't think so. They may go to ER if they face Nahid Rana's 150 KMH.

Fastest ball ever bowled in women's cricket was something like 126 KMH (I forgot the exact number but it was around 126).

I have seen women's cricket.

- Ridiculously short boundaries.
- Bowlers bowling lollipops.
- Comical fielding.
- Hardly any huge six.
- No sledging.

Again, no disrespect to the ladies. I just think women's cricket isn't very serious as of now.

 

[Local.Dada]

I do care. Women need good
Constructive role models in every field like men. Also what it is this argument that some club team in Canada beat women team argument, in fact who is letting women around 50 yr old bearded shady sunday league uncles from Bangladesh anyways? That’s a red flag.Women compete with women, men compete with men. That’s how it works.

You can say about Bangladesh women's team.

In india, WPL matches are blockbuster. Full house at the stadiums and Tv viewership is increasing by record number .

Smrithi Madhana is better player than most of Bangladesh man team player's and she can Cross any boundaries.

Seriously bro? What is your excuse to respond?

In India, CT isn't getting much traction to be honest.

Hardly people even ask about matches. The pubs are still running music video here.

I want women to succeed in everything they do.

Having said that, I do not believe women's cricket should be a thing. Maybe they can play for fun but cricket boards shouldn't waste money on actual women's cricket. Women's cricket is not serious cricket due to basic biology.

Women should play these sports only --> volleyball, golf, snooker, tennis, badminton, and swimming.

Why women's shouldn't play cricket??

 

[Devadwal]

Look at the crowd supporting the ladies .

The Chinnaswamy roar was deafening .Harmanpreet Kaur literally has to shut out the noise—hands over her ears, crowd on fire!
This atmosphere was next level

 

[BDfanforever]

I think Women T20 International World Cup I can definitely watch. However, Women Test Matches? I also watch a bit of Women World Cup soccer and Swimming.

There is one thing for certain, Indians do love their homemade products a lot more in contrasts to Bangladeshi.
Just look at Bollywood which dishes out 90% waste of time movies filled with their nepo kids, but they are still profitable due to the 1.5 billion population.

Where did I write that?

I wrote they could play for fun but cricket boards shouldn't fund these due to lack of profit.

They should play these sports primarily ---> golf, snooker, tennis, volleyball, and swimming.

Test cricket is not profitable for most team's so we should binned the test cricket ?

Australia, England and indian - BIG three women's Match + WPL is profitable for respective boards.

Indians know how to differentiate.

I'll watch a movie with nepo kid for a different reason than let's say a movie of satyajit roy. But I may find entertainment in both the type in different parameters.

 

[jamie smith]

That is gender stereotype.
U should be banned.LOL

TBH nobody nobody cares about womens cricket except some delusional Indian posters.

Jisko dekhna h dekhega, no one force anyone to watch women's cricket but if you cant support them than fine but you can't say women's shouldn't play the cricket just because it not profitable.

That is fine, but the problem here is that how ESPN Cricinfo is highlighting some WPL games over actual Mens Tournament that is happening simultaneously. Also, I would be very weary if IND dont get a hold of their population growth.

Well that is because of the sponsors associated with WPL. Now if it promotes girls taking up sports and new role models, what exactly is the issue. As far as Indian population goes, I would be more wary about Bangladesh’s population density. India has at least some things going for it among a lot of issues, I would be worried about 0 redeeming things in Bangladesh right now.

Yes.

I guess Indians try very hard to appear progressive. They end up looking silly at times.

Again, nothing wrong with women's cricket. I never said that they shouldn't play cricket. All I said was boards shouldn't pour in so much money in this because there was no profit. Better to use that money in men's cricket.

Women are very good at tennis, volleyball, swimming etc. They should only play those sports I guess.

 

[dravidthewall]

I didn't even watch single match....overrated girls in actual odi and t20s

 

[charlie007]

I like watching women’s cricket and have watched a couple of WPL matches just like I watch some men’s IPL matches. I don’t understand why some people don’t want women to play competitive, professional cricket. In fact, I admire the Aussie women for what they bring to this beautiful game - absolute champions.
To each their own, I guess. I am cool with people not liking or enjoying women’s cricket but strongly disagree with conceited comments about which sport women should play and which they shouldn’t- that’s exactly the definition of male chauvinism. Very poor and stone age comments.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Very good pay out for women. Nat sciver brunt got 400000 USD. Ash Gardner 400000 USD which is more than most men make in other leagues.

It is about quality. Not money.

 

[Vikram1989]

So if wpl is having more crowd than ct, its says either wpl is top notch in quality and pcb sucks in pulling crowd.it may be both as we saw pathetic crowd in psl.Any person talking about 1.5 billion should remember China is also same and they don't bother. Bcci hardwork did the miracle. Wpl is happening in 2 cities primarily but attendance is quite impressive.

 

[Rajdeep]

Quality of womens cricket is good from women's standard. If you compare it with men then obviously it will be inferior. Why you think there are 3 sets in ladies wimbledon final compared to 5 for men?

There is also startling difference in quality between an Ashes/BGT versus a test series involving Bangladesh. So should BCB stop investing?

Everyone is aware the mindset towards women for people like you...lets not make it so obvious. The fact that you find things progressive which wider world considers normal is alarming. Yeah...lets cage the women..else its progressive.
