The guidelines that govern women’s cricket worldwide have been established by the International Cricket Council (ICC). A specific window will be set aside for women’s competitions and matches under the ICC’s new Future Tours Programme (FTP). The decision was made in order to provide a well-organised schedule, increase international awareness, and foster the development of women’s cricket.
As part of the 2025–2029 Women’s Future Tours Program, the Women’s Premier League (WPL) will henceforth take place in January–February starting in 2026. This is to make sure that other significant women’s competitions don’t conflict with the league. However, August and November are the dates for The Hundred and the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL), respectively.
The 2024 WPL was postponed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), which prevented some foreign players from bidding and caused others to quit the league in the middle. To accommodate both demands, Cricket Australia has chosen to hold the home summer series in February and March.
The T20 Champions Trophy is introduced by ICC and will begin in 2027.
In addition, the ICC Women’s ODI Championship has been expanded by the ICC. Zimbabwe has entered the event, and 11 teams will compete for the title. Following this development, the championship will be open to all ICC full members. Afghanistan does not have a women’s team, hence it is not on the list.
A T20 Champions Trophy has been developed by the ICC as part of their ambition to organise at least one women’s global competition annually. Beginning in 2027, the competition will be place in Sri Lanka.

This also means that three international tournaments, including big ones like the T20 World Cup in September 2028 and the LA Olympics in August 2028, will be planned over a 14-month period.
