These 3 Indians won their first Women's T20 World Cup

We have learned about the 3 Indian players who are going to play the T20 World Cup for the first time. Now let's know the names of those players for whom this Women's T20 World Cup may be the last. The number of such players may be more but we will mention those 5 players who may be seen playing their last T20 World Cup. Out of those 5, there are 3 who have played every edition of the Women's T20 World Cup so far.

Harmanpreet Kaur (India)

Among the players for whom this Women's T20 World Cup could be the last, the first name is that of Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur. Harmanpreet Kaur, who is 35 years old, has played all the editions of the Women's T20 World Cup so far. It is possible that this year's 9th edition of the tournament could be the last for her.

Stafanie Taylor (West Indies)

West Indies won the Women's T20 World Cup in 2016 under Taylor's captaincy. Stephanie Taylor is not only a big face of the West Indies women's team in white ball cricket but she is also one of the highest run-scorers in T20 Internationals. But, it is possible that this time Taylor may be seen playing her last T20 World Cup.

Sophie Devine (New Zealand)

35-year-old Sophie Devine is also among those players who will be seen playing all the 9 editions of the Women's T20 World Cup since 2009. She will be the captain of New Zealand. But, she has announced to leave the captaincy after this tournament, which is an indication that this may be her last T20 World Cup.

Suzie Bates (New Zealand)

Suzie Bates is the highest run-scorer in T20 Internationals. Like her partner Sophie Devine, she has also played all 9 editions of the Women's T20 World Cup. Bates will be 39 years old by the next T20 World Cup. And, in such a situation, the current edition of the tournament may be the last for her.

Ellyse Perry (Australia)

Australia's Ellyse Perry is considered to be the best all-rounder among women cricketers. She has won every title related to this game. Batting is not a problem for 33-year-old Perry, but due to a knee injury, she has been seen avoiding bowling. Recently, she did not bowl a single over in the T20 series against New Zealand. If the injury becomes an obstacle for Ellyse Perry, then it is possible that she may also be seen playing her last T20 World Cup.
