NEW DELHI: Mithali Raj, the former India captain and mentor for Gujarat Giants, makes a valid point about the expansion of the Women's Premier League (WPL) to multiple cities. Her suggestion that organising the tournament in more than one city will help teams develop a new audience and enhance the tournament's profile reflects an understanding of the potential benefits of geographical diversity.
Expanding the WPL to Delhi and Bengaluru not only broadens the reach of the tournament but also exposes the players and teams to diverse cricketing cultures and fanbases. It can contribute to the growth of women's cricket by creating more opportunities for local talent to be recognised and appreciated on a broader scale.
