The first-ever Women’s Premier League (WPL) promo uses the phrase Har zubaan par naam tera to carry out a similar idea.
The concept is straightforward: cricketers have long been well-known figures in India. It’s time to include the women’s team in this as well.
We are, perhaps, one step closer with the long-awaited WPL, scheduled to start in Mumbai on Saturday.
The inclusion of female cricket players in the larger cricket consciousness.
Being mentioned by name in the everyday Indian talk about cricket. To the commonly used gender-neutral term batter, which is now acknowledged by the cricket rules keeper. This diversity may seem elementary for the high-profile IPL’s women’s division. But that’s just the beginning.
The main objective of the WPL is to mainstream women’s cricket in the discussion of the sport. The money, media, team owners, and sponsors are already present. In the heart of India’s cricket-crazy fandom, far from headlines and hashtags.
The people who frequently discuss yesterday’s game, create memes about it, try to bowl and bat in the shadows while walking to school, or even the grownups who criticise and think they might have performed better. These quirks are what give Indian cricket fans their large, pulsating form. A daily, franchise-owned league can get to this consciousness.

Compared to our previous exhibition Women’s T20 Challenge, which consisted of four games, this one is far more impactful emotionally. Whether it’s the IPL or the Women’s Big Bash League, everyone can see the normal advantages of having a top-tier T20 league nearby.
The rippling effect utterly altered the game in India after Harmanpreet hammered her 171 not out against Australia to advance India to the 2017 ODI World Cup final. This ground-breaking inning followed her wildly successful debut season at the WBBL.
Players from India will now have access to the same kind of competitive experience and knowledge transfer at home. A finishing school that is not international cricket will be given to the raw potential. There will be novel approaches and experiments, both of which will be ultimately advantageous.
