CWG Welcomes Women’s Cricket with Open Arms

Cricket is a game, which majority of people follow, sometimes even worship, but the holy ground of Cricket is still not an unbiased one. Like the entire world, Cricket is also trapped in the loop of gender biases, where the women’s game never gets the due credit for their efforts.

But this never stopped the women, as they kept fighting the odds to earn their credit from the world.
