pWotD Episode 3103: Women's Cricket World Cup Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 366,220 views on Thursday, 30 October 2025 our article of the day is Women's Cricket World Cup.The ICC Women's Cricket World Cup is the quadrennial international championship of the One Day International format with 50 overs per team. It is organised by the International Cricket Council. Until 2005, when the two organisations merged, it was administered by a separate body, the International Women's Cricket Council. The first World Cup was held in England in 1973, two years before the inaugural men's tournament. The event's early years were marked by funding difficulties, which meant several teams had to decline invitations to compete and caused gaps of up to six years between tournaments. However, since 2005, World Cups have been hosted at regular four-year intervals.Qualification for the World Cup is through the ICC Women's Championship and the World Cup Qualifier. The composition of the tournament is extremely conservative – no new teams have debuted in the tournament since 1997, and since 2000 the number of teams in the World Cup has been fixed at eight. However, in March 2021, the ICC revealed that the tournament would expand to 10 teams from the 2029 edition. The 1997 edition was contested by a record eleven teams, the most in a single tournament to date.The twelve World Cups played to date have been held in five countries, with India and England having hosted the event three times. Australia is the most successful team, having won seven titles and failing to make the final on only three occasions. England (four titles) and New Zealand (one title) are the only other teams to have won the event, while India (twice) and the West Indies (once) have each reached the final without going on to win.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:17 UTC on Friday, 31 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Women's Cricket World Cup on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Russell.

India's World Cup has been a mix. Some matches went well. Others, not so much. The regular batters haven't quite clicked. The bowling still lacks variety. Five reliable options weren't enough to trouble South Africa or Australia. With tough games against England, New Zealand and Bangladesh coming up, India will need a new strategy.This World Cup has also been about inter-team relationships. Harmanpreet Kaur and Alyssa Healy fight hard on the field. But off it, there's banter and respect. A two-year-old clip shows Ellyse Perry, Australia's pace-bowling allrounder, talking with Pakistan's 23-year-old captain Fatima Sana. She's learning control. You see curiosity and the game passing from one player to another.Sri Lanka's Chamari Athapaththu leads by example. She pushes her team to believe in themselves. Fans cheer her because she earns it, not because she shouts or poses.From the stands, The Hindu's Anirudh Velamuri sees it all—the tension, the laughs and moments like when Nadine de Klerk, South Africa's captain, gesticulates and talks to herself. Now, the question is whether India can find the spark to turn the tables on an unbeaten England in the upcoming match?

0 :12 -Reflections on Youth Sports and Goalkeeping IdolsMark O'Neill reminisced about a significant match from his youth where he was awarded man of the match, reflecting on the pride that comes from earning accolades. Michael Wright noted the difference between past and present sports culture, particularly regarding participation medals, and how earned achievements create lasting memories. They both acknowledged the importance of these experiences in shaping their love for the game.2:51 Memorable Sports Moments and Team DynamicsMark O'Neill described the thrill of England's victory in the 2019 Cricket World Cup, highlighting the communal atmosphere in a bar filled with fans. Michael Wright recounted his own experience during the final, where he balanced a coaching task with the excitement of the match. Both emphasized the importance of memorable moments in sports.17:39 Understanding Football Club Ownership and Stakeholder PerspectivesMark O'Neill elaborates on his research focused on football club ownership regulation and the differing views of stakeholders, particularly fans. He emphasizes that fans prioritize sporting ambition over financial stability, using examples like Newcastle and Sheffield Wednesday to illustrate how ownership impacts club success. O'Neill also discusses the evolution of ownership structures, noting the shift from community-based ownership to profit-driven models.24:55 -Ownership Models in Football ClubsMark O'Neill explained the differences between multi-club ownership models, such as the City Football Group's centralized management and Chelsea's hedge fund approach. He emphasized that some clubs use these models to develop players as assets for future sales. Additionally, he addressed the controversial ownership of Newcastle, suggesting it may be an example of "sports washing" by the Saudi state to divert attention from human rights issues.39:04 Regulatory Challenges in Football Club OwnershipMichael Wright raised concerns about the FAA's capacity to challenge football club owners when issues arise. Mark O'Neill highlighted that the AFL's powers are restricted, as they can only act if owners fail to meet the Owners and Directors test criteria. He emphasized that an independent regulator would have the necessary authority to take control of a club and facilitate its sale if the owner is not acting in the club's best interest.42:31 - Discussion on Club Ownership and Financial ChallengesThe conversation between Michael Wright and Mark O'Neill focused on the ownership issues of Morecambe and Bury, emphasizing the detrimental impact of financial mismanagement. Mark noted that Jason Whittenham's reluctance to finalize a sale despite having a buyer ready raised questions about his motivations. They expressed concern over the opaque funding sources of Morecambe's new owners and the potential risks for the club's future.47:57 -Future of Football OwnershipMark O'Neill addressed the evolving landscape of football ownership, emphasizing the trend towards multi-club ownership and the influx of foreign investors, especially from the U.S. He raised concerns about American investors attempting to implement a closed system similar to the Super League, but acknowledged the role of independent regulators in maintaining the integrity of the sport. O'Neill also pointed out that the influence of big clubs over the football pyramid is a longstanding issue.52:50 -Discussion on Football Club OwnershipMark O'Neill expressed admiration for owners like Dale Vince of Forest Green Rovers and Steve Gibson of Middlesbrough, noting their commitment to the clubs' best interests. Michael Wright added that while some clubs, like Tottenham, are well-run commercially, there are criticisms regarding their ambition. They both acknowledged the complexities of ownership models and the impact of regulations on clubs. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The White Ferns are dancing with the danger zone at the Cricket World Cup. Following back to back losses to kick off their campaign, the Kiwis face a crucial match against Bangledesh's army of spinners in Guwahati tonight. Sports reporter Jonty Dine spoke to Lisa Owen.
The Women's Cricket World Cup is being held in India for the fourth time, the three previous editions have all been won by Australia. The best performance from India on home soil was a semi-final back in 1997. Their best result anywhere was a runner-up position in England 20 years later. When the India men won the World Cup for the first time in 1983 it was a cultural turning point, igniting a national passion for cricket and instilling belief in the country's potential. So, Prakash Wakankar, Alison Mitchell and former India international Samantha Lobatto investigate whether a win for this women's team could do the same.
