With Women’s IPL, India is going to be unbeatable in 10 years, predicts Alyssa Healy

Australia’s star wicket-keeper batter Alyssa Healy, who is also widely known as the wife of Mitchell Starc, expressed her excitement for a prospective full-fledged Women's IPL next year, saying it would help India become an unbeatable side in the next ten years.

“The IPL in particular - to be able to grow the game in India is incredible. It is an untapped market in the women's game and will do so much for domestic talent. (India is) going to be unbeatable in 10 years. They need a leg up in the domestic set-up to showcase what these women can do," She added.

“Scheduling is going to be a thing. We're going to have to work it out. Whether there's increased international cricket or focus on these domestic leagues, I am not 100 per cent certain. Great to see them being spoken about and hopefully we'll see them get off the ground," the wicket-keeper batter said.

Meanwhile, the details of the Women's IPL are yet to be revealed. But Healy is happy to be involved there if things fall into place. "If they want a 32-33-year-old opening batter who can chirp a bit behind the stumps, I am available," she jokingly concluded.
