This research project focus on inequalities in women’s cricket in India. Cricket is the most popular sport in India and the Indian national women’s and men’s teams have had considerable success in the international arena. This project draws upon a range of secondary sources (including documentaries, scholarly articles, organizational reports, podcasts, and news articles) to focus on two interrelated structural barriers that women’s cricket faces in India: the pay gap and the play gap. These two institutionalized forms of inequality also fail to support the creation of a strong pipeline of the next generation of female cricket players in India.
