LONDON: International Cricket Council chief executive Sanjog Gupta, insists the Women’s T20 World Cup can “co-exist” with the football World Cup. England opened the cricket showpiece on home soil with an 87-run rout of Sri Lanka on Friday in front of 14,865 fans at Edgbaston. England’s female football and rugby teams enjoyed public acclaim for their success at the European Championships and Rugby World Cup in recent years. But their cricketing counterparts are going for glory at a time when the sporting landscape is being dominated by the men’s football World Cup in North America.
