Background

The 2022 Women's Cricket World Cup was the twelfth edition of the Women's Cricket World Cup, which was held in New Zealand in March and April 2022.[5][6] It was originally scheduled to be held in February and March 2021 but was postponed by one year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7][8] On 15 December 2021, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced that the tournament would start on 4 March 2022, with the final scheduled for 3 April 2022.[9]

This was Australia's seventh world cup final,[10] while England reached their sixth world cup final, having been runners-up in 1982 and 1988 against Australia.[11] This was also the third time that Australia and England faced each other in a final.
