Jonathan Licht, Managing Director of Sky Sports said: This is an exciting moment for the country where fans will hopefully get to see England lift the Cricket World Cup once again.

We are pleased to be able to make another moment of national significant free for the whole nation to watch.

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. Last year saw Sky Sports launch The Hundred and celebrate 25 years of women's cricket.
