Women's cricket will be part of Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games

In a piece of big news for cricketing fans around the world, the Commonwealth Games Federation announced that women's T20 Cricket has been confirmed for inclusion at the Birmingham Commonwealth Games in 2022.

Eight teams will compete across eight match days, as cricket returns to the Commonwealth Games for the first time since 1998 when South Africa won the gold medal in a men's 50-over format competition in Kuala Lumpur.

Edgbaston, the venue of England's semi-final victory over Australia in the men's 50-over World Cup, will play host to all the matches.

The 2022 Commonwealth Games will take place in England from 27th July to 7th August.
