England’s women’s cricket team won the trophy in 2009, the first edition of the T20 World Cup. Since then, they have not lifted the trophy. After 2009, they have reached the finals thrice but have failed to lift the trophy.

Their previous campaign ended up at the semi-final stage after a defeat against the hosts South Africa. In this past year, England has shown potential in their camp. They recorded a dominating win over New Zealand twice in the same year.

England also scored a series win over Pakistan, India, and Sri Lanka. With their consistency and winning attitude, England has become one of the potential teams to lift the trophy.

In the T20 World Cup overall, England has played 38 matches and have won 28 out of them. Their winning percentage stands at 75% and the only team which is ahead of them is Australia with a win percentage of 80.68.

This year England will be under the leadership of Heather Knight. She is one of the most experienced players in the team and she will have Danni Wyatt and Sophie Ecclestone by her side.
