WPL will change the face of women’s cricket in India

Mumbai, 4/3: Having been part of women’s cricket for close to two decades, Ben Sawyer knows a thing or two about winning at the highest level.

 

Besides winning three World Cup titles as an assistant coach with the Australian women’s side, the 45-year-old has also been the head coach of the highly-successful Sydney Sixers in the Women’s Big Bash League. He is also currently in charge of the Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred.

 

It then makes sense why Royal Challengers Bangalore went out on a limb to acquire his services for the inaugural edition of the upcoming Women’s Premier League.

 

“I am glad we started the process (of poaching for Sawyer) a little while earlier than expected,” said Mike Hesson, the director of cricket at RCB. “We knew he was the best person for the job and he has some stellar players under him so we’re confident of what he will be able to do with us.”
