#T20 World Cup 2009 Women

[kammartinez]

By Natasha Frost

Fans celebrated in central Melbourne this week after a national triumph: The Matildas, the Australian women’s soccer team, had defeated Canada, the reigning Olympic champion, 4-0.

It was a glorious victory after a dismal start to the Women’s World Cup for one of the two host teams. In Federation Square, Australians held up gold and green scarves and bellowed, “Up the Matildas!”

Two years earlier, the same city had seen a similar outpouring of support for the Australian women’s cricket team. Inside Melbourne Cricket Ground, more than 86,000 people had gathered to watch the final of the Women’s T20 World Cup, while 1.2 million people tuned in from elsewhere in Australia.

For Ellyse Perry, an Australian sporting legend who has represented the country in both the cricket and soccer World Cups, the 2020 match — the largest crowd ever to watch a women’s cricket match — was a milestone for women’s sports in Australia.

“It’s really now starting to become embedded in general society, and it’s commonplace,” she said. “We don’t think differently about it. It’s not an oddity any more.”

For as long as there have been sports in Australia, women have clamored to play and participate. What is believed to be the world’s first cycling race for women took place in Sydney in 1888; the country’s first golf championship, in 1894, was women only; and at the 1912 Olympics, Australian women won silver and gold in the first women’s Olympic freestyle race.

Yet even though Australian women’s sports have an extensive and proud history, only recently have they received significant mainstream support. A strong run in the World Cup — Australia will face Denmark in the round of 16 on Monday — was seen as an opportunity to change that, to cement the place of women’s sports in the country’s daily rhythms and conversation.

Sam Kerr, the Matildas star who is widely regarded as one of the best players in the world, said the impact of the tournament on women’s soccer was all but unimaginable.

“For years to come, this will be talked about — hopefully, decades to come,” she told reporters last month, citing an uptick in young boys and girls coming to women’s soccer games.

A longer view on the history of women’s sports in Australia involves many moments of triumph, but also times when able and enthusiastic sportswomen were simply shut out.

“There are peaks and troughs all the way through,” Marion Stell, a historian at the University of Queensland, said of women’s sports in Australia. “Women make advances — but then it goes away again. It’s never a smooth upward curve.”

Only in the past couple of decades had female athletes been able to make consistent strides on pay, opportunities and representation, she added. Today, half of all Australian girls play sports at least once a week, according to the Australian Sports Commission, compared with about 30 percent of girls in the United States.

“I don’t think anyone would have dreamed that it would happen so quickly,” Dr. Stell said. “On one hand, it’s been very slow. But on the other hand, when it happened, the floodgates just opened.”

Yet despite their enthusiasm, and their prodigious talent for bringing home Olympic medals, female athletes in Australia have, like their international peers, historically been sidelined, blocked or simply not taken seriously.

In 1980, women’s sports made up about 2 percent of print sports coverage in Australia. By 2009, women’s sports made up about 9 percent of television news coverage, according to a report from the Australian Sports Commission. But the balance appears to be shifting: A poll last year found that nearly 70 percent of Australians had watched more women’s sports since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic.

Dr. Stell, the historian, pointed further back. She saw the 1976 Montreal Olympics, where Australia failed to win a single gold medal, as a turning point. The country’s lackluster performance spurred a significant backlash in the Australian news media, which described the results as a “crisis for the government” and called for action for Australia to “regain its lost athletic potency.”

Women had historically been something of a golden goose for Australia at the Olympics, making up a minority of the country’s total athletes but often winning the majority of its medals. At the 1972 Games in Munich, for instance, 10 out of 17 Australian medals were won by women, even as they made up only about 17 percent of the team.

And so in 1981, Australia established the Australian Institute of Sport, a high-performance sports training center for both men and women that, for the first time, gave women the financial support to concentrate on their sports full-time — beginning with Australian rules football, basketball, gymnastics, netball, swimming, tennis, track and field and weight lifting.

That was followed a few years later by the Sex Discrimination Act, which prohibited discrimination on the basis of gender or sexuality.

“Those two things together might be some kind of watershed,” Dr. Stell said. “But not, I guess, in the public imagination — more in sporting women’s lives.”

Even after that, female athletes in most other sports often had no alternative but to play in a semiprofessional capacity. In the mid-1990s, as male Australian cricket players were on the cusp of striking over what they felt was inadequate remuneration, female players in the sport barely had their expenses covered, and often had to pay their own way to compete. Most juggled jobs and other commitments alongside their sports careers.

“How did it make me feel? I just wanted to play as much cricket as I possibly could,” said Belinda Clark, who was the captain of Australia’s World Cup-winning women’s cricket teams in 1997 and 2005.

She added: “We all structured our lives — our working lives and our personal lives — around being able to do that. That comes at a financial cost. We all accepted that.”

In recent decades, cricket has led the charge on fair pay for female athletes in Australia. While male cricketers still significantly out-earn their female counterparts, the majority of female players earn at least 100,000 Australian dollars, or $66,000. By comparison, female players of Australian rules football, rugby league, netball and professional soccer have a minimum salary of less than half of that — a source of ongoing tension since it is far below the country’s living wage.

Across all sports, perhaps the most important factor for female athletes was having women in positions of responsibility across journalism, management, coaching, umpiring and administration, Dr. Stell said.

In the early 1980s, Australian universities began to offer the country’s first sports management degrees. “That kind of allowed women to get a kind of professional qualification so that they could take the administration of sports off the kitchen table and make it more professional,” she said.

Women are gradually becoming more visible as sports people in Australia. But it was not until earlier this year that a female cricket player was celebrated in statue form for the first time, though the country claims more than 70 statues of male players.

A bronze statue of Clark was unveiled at Sydney Cricket Ground in January; it is the first public statue of any female cricket player anywhere in the world. Representation of that kind sends a powerful message, especially to younger players, Clark said.

“What are the photos in the club? Who’s on the honor boards? What are we saying to the people that walk in this door?” she asked. “Are you part of this, or are you a guest or a visitor?

“It symbolizes that you’re actually part of it. You’re no longer coming, cap in hand, to beg for an opportunity.”

Women's T20 cricket has seen a meteoric rise, charming audiences and breaking barriers. This article delves into the journey of women T20 cricket, highlighting its rise, key milestones and celebrities who have taken the game to new heights.

The Genesis of Women's T20 Cricket

The beginnings of women's T20 cricket can be traced back to the early 2000s when the need for a shorter and more dynamic format became apparent. The format was intended to bring a faster pace and more excitement to the sport, making it more accessible and attractive to audiences.

Early Milestones

The Growth of Women's T20 Cricket

Expanding Global Reach

The growth of girls' T20 cricket is marked by its growing global reach. Countries on all continents have adopted this format and fostered an aggressive and diverse environment. The ICC's tasks to promote girls' cricket played a vital role in this expansion.

Grassroots Development: Programs aimed at younger girls have been instrumental in nurturing talent from an early age.

Professional Leagues: The establishment of professional T20 league competitions, including the Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) and the Kia Super League (KSL), has given female cricketers a platform to showcase their skills and take advantage of the professionals who enjoy it.

Media and Sponsorship

The upward push of girls' T20 cricket is also attributed to increased media coverage and sponsorship. Major TV stations now regularly air girl fits, bringing the game to a wider audience. Sponsorship offers don't have the best financial help, but they also increase the visibility of the game.

Record-Breaking Performances

Future Prospects of Women's T20 Cricket

Innovations and Opportunities

The future of women's T20 cricket looks promising, with constant improvements and opportunities for growth. Technological improvements, which include the use of fact analysis and performance monitoring, improve player development and sports technique.

Expanding the Audience

Efforts to expand the audience base include targeted marketing campaigns and the inclusion of women's cricket in major multi-sport events like the Commonwealth Games and the Olympics.

The push towards increasing professionalism in women's cricket continues, with more countries offering central contracts to female players and enhancing the infrastructure to support their development.

Women's Cricket: Breaking Boundaries and Making History

In the world of sports, cricket has always been a game deeply rooted in tradition and history. Yet, one of the most significant and heartening developments in recent years has been the meteoric rise of women's cricket, which has shattered boundaries and made history on numerous occasions. In this article, we will explore the journey of women's cricket, from its humble beginnings to the present day, highlighting key milestones and the remarkable players who have played pivotal roles in its growth.

The Early Days: A Humble Start

Women's cricket has a long history dating back to the late 18th century in England, where it was initially played in a recreational and amateur capacity. The first recorded women's cricket match took place in 1745, demonstrating that women's involvement in the sport predates the formation of men's cricket teams. However, it wasn't until the late 19th century that women's cricket began to gain more organized recognition.

1934: The First Women's Test Match

A significant milestone in the history of women's cricket was the inaugural Women's Test match, which took place between England and Australia in 1934. The match was played at Brisbane, and it marked the beginning of international women's cricket. England emerged victorious, setting the stage for many more exciting contests in the years to come.

1973: The First Women's Cricket World Cup

The year 1973 witnessed the birth of the Women's Cricket World Cup, an event that played a pivotal role in the development and popularization of women's cricket. The first Women's World Cup was hosted in England and saw participation from England, Australia, and New Zealand. England clinched the inaugural title, and this tournament laid the foundation for the future growth of women's cricket on the global stage.

1997: A Watershed Moment

The year 1997 marked a significant turning point in women's cricket with the formation of the International Women's Cricket Council (IWCC), which later merged with the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 2005. This merger brought women's cricket under the umbrella of the sport's global governing body, signaling a commitment to its growth and development.

The Rise of Women's T20 Cricket

The 21st century witnessed a paradigm shift in the format of the game with the introduction of Twenty20 (T20) cricket. This shorter format injected a new lease of life into women's cricket and attracted a larger global audience. The Women's T20 World Cup, which began in 2009, quickly gained popularity and showcased the athleticism and skill of female cricketers on a grand stage.

The Superstars of Women's Cricket

Throughout its history, women's cricket has produced a plethora of iconic players who have left an indelible mark on the sport. Players like Belinda Clark, Ellyse Perry, Mithali Raj, and Meg Lanning have become household names, inspiring a new generation of young girls to take up the game and dream big.

Empowering Moments

Women's cricket has not only broken boundaries on the field but has also made a significant impact off it. The sport has played a pivotal role in empowering women and challenging stereotypes. It has shown that women can excel in traditionally male-dominated fields and that they deserve equal opportunities and recognition.

The Road Ahead: A Promising Future

As we look to the future, the trajectory of women's cricket appears incredibly promising. The sport continues to grow in popularity, with more countries investing in their women's cricket programs. Increased media coverage and sponsorships have further bolstered its visibility and appeal. The Women's T20 World Cup, Women's ODI World Cup, and various domestic leagues are thriving, providing female cricketers with ample opportunities to showcase their talents.

Commonwealth Games, and Olympics, can help cricket add the ‘World’ in its World Cups

Eleven teams had participated in the Women’s World Cup in India back in 1997, a year before cricket made its debut in the Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur.

T20 World Cup 2021: Pakistan can summon 'spirit of 2009' to recapture title, says Shahid Afridi

Shahid Afridi, the box office trailblazer of white-ball cricket, believes that “unpredictable” Pakistan can summon the spirit of 2009 and win a second T20 World Cup.

Afridi was man of the match in a nail-biting seven-run semi-final win over South Africa in the tournament 12 years ago where he made 51.

He then starred again in the eight-wicket rout of Sri Lanka in the final at Lord's where he smashed an undefeated 54.

Pakistan's victory came just three months after the terror attack on the Sri Lanka team in Lahore, an incident that sparked a shutdown of international cricket in the country.

“We had that issue of the Sri Lanka attacks on our minds,” Afridi told AFP.

“The whole nation was disappointed and frustrated so that win was very much needed.

“The win gave the whole nation happiness and some unforgettable moments.” Afridi famously stormed onto the scene in 1996 when he broke the record for the fastest century in ODI cricket, reaching his hundred from 37 balls.

It was a record that stood until 2014.

Afridi, who played 99 T20 Internationals for Pakistan, thinks recent setbacks can again inspire Babar Azam's team in the 2021 T20 showpiece.

A month before the mega-event, head coach Misbah-ul-Haq and bowling coach Waqar Younis resigned, apparently believing new board chairman Ramiz Raja would sack them anyway.

Then New Zealand abandoned their tour of the country just minutes before the first ODI in Rawalpindi.

Three days later, England also withdrew its men's and women's teams from visiting Pakistan.

“This is Pakistan cricket for you, never ever a dull day,” added Afridi ruefully.

“Pakistan can surprise any team in the world. Rule them out at your peril.” In his 22-year international career, Afridi was at the heart of Pakistan's “topsy-turvy” ride in limited-overs cricket.

Heartbreak and drama

Afridi anchored Pakistan's run to the final in the inaugural Twenty20 World Cup in South Africa in 2007, taking 12 wickets which earned him the player of the tournament award.

Pakistan, however, lost twice against arch-rivals India — including the final.

“Pakistan gave the best entertainment in the first T20 World Cup,” insists Afridi.

“We lost to India in the group match after a bowl-out, which was something very new for us.”

Pakistan then lost the final with Misbah-ul-Haq falling to an injudicious shot off the third ball of the final over, with just six needed for a win.

“Misbah brought Pakistan into the game but then we lost by the barest of margins,” said Afridi.

Under Afridi, defending champions Pakistan then lost in the semi-final of the 2010 edition in the Caribbean when Michael Hussey clobbered 39 runs in the last two overs to give Australia an unlikely win.

“T20 suits our character,” added Afridi. “We have the talent, approach and aggression required for this rapid format.

“It is a format which is loved throughout Pakistan. We won against every team and then every team adopted that style.

“Bowling is now full of variety and new batting techniques have developed.” Afridi insists Pakistan can once again spring a few surprises in the UAE.

“The current Pakistan team is very talented although they lack experienced players. But, as we all know, never underestimate a Pakistan team! “
