The ICC is committed to the growth of the women’s game and understanding that there is a growing appetite for content worldwide has arranged to provide news reports, features, columns, videos of interviews as well as transcripts and translationsto ensure the media and fans do not miss anything.
Please note that all content should be used giving credit to the International Cricket Council. The following material will be available on the Online Media Zone in the coming weeks:
Build-up articles – Starting Wednesday, a wide variety of build-up articles about past events as well as the upcoming tournament will be made available. These will include topics such as the history of the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup, past heroes and players to look out for.
Captains’ columns – Captains of participating teams will be writing first-person articles for the ICC as part of the event build-up, speaking about their team and the tournament. These columns will provide great insight into what the team objectives are and what they expect in New Zealand.
Match reports, roundups and other articles – Match reports and daily wraps will form the core of the coverage with crisp articles in a ready-to-use form. A team will be writing exclusively for the ICC, ensuring top-class content including features, interviews and previews covering all teams and venues.
