The ICC Women's Cricket World Cup is part of a bumper day of women's sport on Sky Sports on 2nd April that will also include boxing, football, golf and netball.

Sky's cricket coverage began in 1989 with the first ever ball-by-ball coverage of an overseas tour of West Indies. Over three decades Sky Sports has developed increasingly innovative and engaging coverage and invested more than £2bn in the sport helping drive better facilities, coaching and central contracts across the men's and women's game.
