New Delhi . A new historical record has been recorded regarding the number of spectators in the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026. The league match played between England and New Zealand at the Oval ground in London has left behind all the viewership records so far. More than 21 thousand spectators reached the stadium to watch this match, making it the most watched league match in Women’s T20 World Cup history.

Earlier this record was in the name of the high-voltage match played between India and Pakistan, which was watched by about 18,814 spectators at the stadium in Edgbaston. For a long time, this match was considered to be the match that attracted the most spectators in the league phase, but the match between England and New Zealand left this record behind.

This match played at the Oval has taken the popularity of women’s cricket to a new level. For the first time, the attendance of more than 20 thousand spectators was recorded in a league match, which is considered an important achievement for women’s cricket. This figure shows that women’s cricket is now gaining a greater global viewer base than ever before.

After the group stage matches, the picture of the semi-finals is also almost clear. From Group B, England and West Indies have made it to the semi-finals, while New Zealand is out of the tournament. At the same time, the competition in Group A still remains exciting, where the upcoming match between India and Australia will play a decisive role.

This situation remains very important for India, because if the team is successful in defeating Australia then its place in the semi-finals will be confirmed.
