Women’s Belt & Road T20I Tournament Teams 2025

Hong Kong women are the defending champions of this event and once again will be strong contenders ahead of this tournament. Hosts China need to punch above their weight in order to bag the honours of this tournament.

Myanmar women are still in the lower rungs of T20I Rankings of Women’s Cricket and if they beat Hong Kong or China, it will be considered as a huge upset. On the other hand, Mongolia Cricket made their debut in international cricket in 2023 and would be the underdogs in this competition. All these nations might not be the top cricket teams in women's cricket but are working tirelessly to become one of the best cricket teams in the world.

Two matches will be played every single day and the first match will begin from 7:30 AM (IST). The second game of the tournament will be taking place from 12:00 PM (IST). The top two teams will be advancing to the finals after the completion of the round-robin stage. The bottom two teams will play for the third-place play-off.

The Women’s Belt & Road T20I tournament is a great initiative by China Cricket to promote women’s cricket in Asia and can produce some hidden stars, who were yearning for an opportunity. For Mongolia and Myanmar, the tournament represents opportunity and they would be looking to grab it with both hands. The experience that they will gain in this tournament will be invaluable and priceless.
