Women's One Day International

Last updated

Women's One Day International (ODI) is the limited overs form of women's cricket. Matches are scheduled for 50 overs, equivalent to the men's game. The first women's ODIs were played in 1973, as part of the first Women's World Cup which was held in England. The first ODI would have been between New Zealand and Jamaica on 20 June 1973, but was abandoned without a ball being bowled, due to rain. [1] Therefore, the first women's ODIs to take place were three matches played three days later. [2]

The 1,000th women's ODI took place between South Africa and New Zealand on 13 October 2016. [3]

Women's ODI status is determined by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and was restricted to full members of the ICC. In May 2022, the ICC awarded ODI status to five more teams. [4]

Involved nations

In 2006 the ICC announced that only the top-10 ranked sides would have Test and ODI status. During the 2011 Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier Netherlands lost its ODI status by virtue of not finishing in the top 6 placings. As the top 4 teams with ODI status were not required to take part in this qualifying tournament, the top 6 in this tournament constituted the top 10 overall placings. Bangladesh replaced the Netherlands as one of the ten countries which currently have ODI status. [5]

In September 2018, ICC chief executive Dave Richardson announced that all matches at ICC World Cup Qualifiers would be awarded ODI status. [6] However, in November 2021, the ICC reversed this decision and determined that all fixtures in the Women's World Cup Qualifier featuring a team without ODI status would be recorded as a List A match. [7] This followed an announcement retrospectively applying first-class and List A status to women's cricket. [8] [9]

In April 2021, the ICC awarded permanent Test and ODI status to all full member women's teams. [10] Afghanistan and Zimbabwe gained ODI status for the first time as a result of this decision.

The teams with WODI status (with the date of each team's WODI debut) are:

Temporary ODI status

Previously, the ICC granted temporary ODI status to other teams (known as Associate members). In May 2022, the ICC awarded women's ODI status to the Netherlands, Papua New Guinea, Scotland, Thailand and the United States; [11] all of these nations other than Scotland had qualified for the abandoned 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier (although PNG withdrew from the qualifier due to COVID-19).

The following five teams currently have this status (the dates listed in brackets are of their first ODI match after gaining temporary ODI status):

Additionally, four teams have previously held this temporary ODI status before either being promoted to Test Status or relegated after under-performing at the World Cup Qualifier:

Special ODI status

The ICC can also grant special ODI status to all matches within certain high-profile tournaments, with the result being that the following countries have also participated in full ODIs, with some later gaining temporary or permanent ODI status also fitting into this category:

There are also four other teams which once had ODI status, but either no longer exist or no longer play international cricket. Three appeared only in the 1973 Women's Cricket World Cup.

Rankings

Before October 2018, ICC did not maintain a separate Twenty20 ranking for the women's game, instead aggregating performance over all three forms of the game into one overall women's teams ranking. [12] In January 2018, ICC granted international status to all matches between associate nations and announced plan to launch separate T20I rankings for women. [13] In October 2018 the T20I rankings were launched with separate ODI rankings for Full Members. [14]
