The 2018 Women's World Twenty20 was the sixth edition of the ICC Women's World Twenty20, hosted in the West Indies from 9 to 24 November 2018. [3] [4] It the second World Twenty20 hosted by the West Indies (after the 2010 edition), and the West Indies were the defending champions. [5]

The tournament was awarded to the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) at the 2013 annual conference of the International Cricket Council (ICC). [6] The tournament's dates were confirmed at an ICC board meeting in January 2015. [7] In February 2017, the ICC confirmed that this would be the first T20 tournament that uses the Decision Review System, with one review per side. [8]

The qualifier tournament for the competition was held in July 2018 in the Netherlands. [9] Both Bangladesh and Ireland won their respective semi-final matches in the qualifier, to advance to the Women's World Twenty20 tournament. [10] [11]

The first match scheduled to be played in Saint Lucia, between England and Sri Lanka, was abandoned due to rain. [12] With further rain forecast in Saint Lucia, the ICC looked at a contingency plan of moving other group games to Antigua. [13] The following day, the ICC confirmed that the Group A matches would remain in Saint Lucia. [14] The ICC cited logistical issues and cost as the main factors for not moving the fixtures. [15]

Australia in Group B qualified for the semi-finals, with their win against New Zealand, to give them three wins from three matches. [16] India, also in Group B, qualified for the semi-finals, after they beat Ireland by 52 runs, with three wins from three matches. [17] In Group A, tournament hosts the West Indies, along with England, progressed to the semi-finals, after wins in their penultimate group-stage fixtures. [18] In the first semi-final, the West Indies faced Australia, [19] with England and India playing each other in the second semi-final. [20] Australia beat the West Indies by 71 runs [21] and England beat India by 8 wickets to progress to the final. [22]

Australia won their fourth title after beating England in the final by 8 wickets. [23] Meg Lanning, captain of the Australian team said that the victory was "the most satisfying win I've been involved in" adding that "there will be some big celebrations". [24] England's captain, Heather Knight, said that the team did not post a competitive total, but was "proud of the girls for reaching another world final". [25] Australia's Alyssa Healy was named the player of the tournament. [26]
