The ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup bowls off tonight in New Zealand.
West Indies Women will kick start the marquee event against the hosts New Zealand in a day/night encounter at Bay Oval in Tauranga.
West Indies will be under the leadership of Jamaican Stafanie Taylor, the outstanding all-rounder, as they go in search of their first global 50-over title.
Anisa Mohammed could be in the spotlight during the match.
The experienced off-spinner played her first Women’s World Cup back in 2005 in South Africa. She is on 299 international wickets – 174 in ODIs and 125 in T20Is and with one more wicket would become the first West Indian woman to take 300 wickets in international cricket.
Taylor is also on the verge of a bowling milestone in her illustrious career. She has 246 international wickets – 148 in ODIs and 98 in T20Is – therefore four wickets away from 250 at the international level.
The match is schedule to bowl off at 8:00 p.m. Jamaica time
