"All matches of the prestigious tournament will be covered live by broadcast partners around the world, who will access a fully produced world feed programme from ICC TV using a minimum of 24 cameras at each of the six venues."

Hosts New Zealand face West Indies in the tournament opener in Mount Maunganui on Friday.

"Women's cricket has made rapid progress in the past few years, and I have been following it very keenly.

“The world's best have converged in New Zealand and I'm sure there are lots of thrills in store in the coming weeks," fomer England men's team captain and one of the commentators, Nasser Hussain said.
