The tournament dates remain unchanged.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has announced a revised schedule for the eagerly awaited Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 in India and Sri Lanka, starting September 30. The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru witnessed a stampede during the maiden Indian Premier League (IPL) title-win celebrations of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Due to several losses of lives, the stadium is now unavailable to host any further matches. As a replacement, Navi Mumbai’s DY Patil Stadium will be one of the hosts.

The DY Patil Stadium will now host up to five fixtures, including three league stage games, one of the two semi-finals, and the potential final for the 13th edition of the tournament. The final of the coveted trophy is slated for November 2.
ICC Chairman Jay Shah believes the Navi Mumbai venue is ideal for women’s cricket.
“Navi Mumbai has emerged as a genuine home for women’s cricket in recent years. The support it has received during international fixtures and the Women’s Premier League has been remarkable, creating an atmosphere that elevates the players and inspires fans. I am certain that the same energy will define the big matches of the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup as it returns to India after 12 years,” Shah said.
