The one-of-its-kind match featuring 26 players including 10 worldwide stars from Australia, England and New Zealand will be played a day before the IPL Qualifier 1. We've seen the Women's Big Bash League, the Kia Super League, and hopefully in a few years, the women's IPL.

Alyssa Healy, Australia's wicketkeeper-batter, Beth Mooney, Australia's opener, Suzie Bates, the veteran New Zealand all-rounder, are some of the worldwide stars in the Trailblazers' set-up.

"This is being staged as a well-deserved exhibition to showcase the tremendous depth and capability that women's cricket in India has achieved. Danni Wyatt and Daniel Hazell will add the English flavour". "Mithali Raj, Jhulan Goswami, Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana and Veda Krishanmurthy among others rubbing shoulders with foreign stars will be a unique experience and something that we have not witnessed here in India". The match will be played at the Wankhede Stadium before the first qualifier of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) gets underway.
