Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

India do have a good women's team, and could beat teams like Australia. But still the women's teams of Australia, NZ and England are superior to their Asian counterparts. Sri Lanka and Pakistan too have women's teams, but they are not competitive enough.

The bowling of Indian women as good, but batting has to improve. They have to play more like Virender Sehwag to raise their game. Now they play like Rahul Dravid. Women's Cricket should be developed from School level and the best talent has to be found and brought forward. As of now, only a privileged few are going on to represent India in women's cricket. It's not the best talent available in India, it's just the best of what is known. BCCI can pitch in here.

Answer 2

I like Pegasus's answer especially this part

" should be developed from School level and the best talent has to be found and brought forward."

I just wanna add one thing and that is that as the men perform so well in cricket seeing women cricketers' lousy fielding becomes very difficult. The Caucasian race has I feel physically stronger women whereas the Asian women do not have that much strength.

I hope I am not seen as racist , this is an honest observation. I do not watch womens cricket bec of bad fielding , not being able to run fast after the ball/ bad throws and too many dropped catches or bad aim at wickets

Answer 3

i think because of cultural differences between Asian women's cricket and the rest of the world's cricket team..

Answer 4

I think Pakistan too have one..not sure about SL, though.
I think lack of sponsors are the big pro: If some corporate houses can come forward, it'll help/

Answer 5

Have you seen the abhorred treatment of women in those countries?
