Before Women’s T20 World Cup Cup, England women captain Heather Knight has stated that there is eagerness for success in her side as they want to conquer the championship yet again. England’s campaign in the Women’s T20 World Cup begins against 2016 champions West Indies on February 11 in Paarl as part of Group B that includes matches against India, Pakistan and Ireland.
England ready to conquer
“It’s amazing to be here in South Africa ready to test ourselves in another global tournament. We have come close on a few occasions since 2017 and it would be really special to go one step further this time around. We haven’t lifted the trophy since 2009 and we’d quite like to put that right. We felt in a great place in 2020 before the rain intervened at Sydney but in many ways that feels like a lifetime ago, with COVID-19 entering the mix soon after.”
“We know on our day that we can be a match for anyone, our job now is to ensure we have our day as regularly as possible — to keep being aggressive, taking the game forward and backing our strengths,” wrote Heather in her column for the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Friday.
England eye big record
If England wins the T20 World Women’s World Cup then they would also become only the second team after West Indies to win the championship in both men’s and women’s cricket.
