Australia won a record-extending seventh ICC Women's T20 World Cup title after beating hosts England by seven wickets in the final at Lord's on Sunday, as ICC Chairman Jay Shah said the tournament showed that "women's cricket is in a golden era."
Congratulating both finalists in a post on X, Shah wrote, "Congratulations to @CricketAus on winning their 7th @ICC Women's T20 World Cup title with another incredible campaign. Huge credit to @englandcricket too - fantastic runners-up but champions in spirit. This tournament reminded us why women's cricket is unmissable - power, passion, and pure class on display from start to finish. Thank you to both teams and everyone who made this World Cup so special. Women's cricket is in a golden era!"
