The Women's IPL is also known as Women T20 Challenge. The tournament was played before, but it was not a full-fleshed one, just like the Men's play in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

This time the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has planned a big event, and they have also shortlisted 200 female players for the auction. 

After many delays, the Women’s IPL 2023 will finally be played. This time, the event will be a 15-day affair, starting on 7th March and ending on 22nd March 2023.

Overseas players will also participate in the Women’s Indian Premiere League. The main idea of the Women’s IPL is that more girls would make a career in sports. 

Several men's cricketers, former Women's cricketer Mithali Raj, current Indian Women’s skipper Harmanpreet Kaur and the vice-captain of the Women’s Indian Team, Smriti Mandhana, have appreciated this move of BCCI.

The Indian skipper Kaur said that this tournament would help the domestic Women players to play against the best players, which will help them to do well for the country.
