The Premier League female has “grown phenomenally” grew up in the past three years, but it is not immediately planned to increase the number of teams of the five existing, said the president of IPL, Arun Dhumal, who is also part of the WPL Committee. The WPL committee led by the president of the BCCI, Roger Binny. The board of directors planned to increase the number of teams after three seasons, but it now wants to consolidate. “To further strengthen this tournament at the moment, we want to consolidate before taking a call for additional addition to a team. There are no immediate plans (adding teams),” Dhumal told PTI.
That said, Dhumal is satisfied with the growth of the tournament.
“So, in the three editions, WPL developed phenomenally in terms of traction, for attendance in the stadium. All the diffusion figures are very, very encouraging. And it has given new momentum to the cricket of women worldwide.
“So we hope it continues to grow. And it increases very well not only for the tournament, but female cricket in general,” he added.
WPL has not yet been played in home format, as is the case with the Indian Premier League. The BCCI combined smaller centers like Baroda and Lucknow with Mumbai and Bengaluru to host the last edition that ended on March 15.
The Mumbai Indians won their second title in three years by beating the capitals of Delhi in the final in Mumbai.
The BCCI had cleaned RS 4670 crosses the sale of five teams representing Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Up and Gujarat.
The rights of the media were sold for Rs 951 crore, which makes it the second largest female league in the world before the ball started.
The crowd’s participation rate for the majority of matches has been decent this season. Although the main objective of the League is to promote the women’s match in India and discover more talent. Competition has a lot of possibilities to improve this front.
