when did women's cricket start in india
India women's national cricket team The British brought cricket to India in the early 1700s, with the first cricket match played in 1721.[10] The first Indian cricket club was established by the Parsi community in Bombay, in 1848; the club played their first match against the Europeans in 1877.[11] The first official Indian cricket team was formed in 1911 and toured England, where they played English county teams.[12] The India team made their Test debut against England in 1932.[13] Around the same time (1934), the first women's Test was played between England and Australia.[14] However, women's cricket arrived in India much later; the Women's Cricket Association of India was formed in 1973.[15] The Indian women's team played their first Test match in 1976, against the West Indies.[16] India recorded its first-ever Test win in November 1978 against West Indies under Shantha Rangaswamy's captaincy at the Moin-ul-Haq Stadium in Patna.[17][18]
