T10, the latest and shortest version of instant cricket, will make its debut in Canada later this month. This time, girls and women in colourful clothing will take to the field in the first-ever major international T10 event on Canadian soil. Instead of Brampton, the acknowledged cricket capital of cricket in Canada, this marquee event will be held at Danville Park in Mississauga.

 

After the mixed success of the weather-marred T20 World Cup for men jointly staged by the USA and West Indies, cricket looks set to spread its base in North America. Early this month, Brampton organised its second edition of the GT 20 cricket tournament. Women cricketers will now take over the onerous task of popularising this bat and ball game further in Canada through this three-day extravaganza featuring both present and upcoming women cricketers.

 

“We are thrilled to bring such a high-calibre event to Mississauga,” Atul Ahuja, Curator, said. “The World T10TM Women’s Series and World T10TM Rising Star Women Series are set to be incredible showcases of talent and skill. We invite fans from all around to join us in celebrating the sport and supporting these fantastic teams and players.”
