The International Cricket Council (ICC) has been focussing on reaching the equal prize money goal for a few years now and increased the amount for the Women's World Cup and T20 World Cup every year since 2018.
India will next lock horns against New Zealand in the tournament on Thursday. Earlier, Farhan Akhtar, Anushka Sharma and Taapsee Pannu had extended their wishes to the Indian women's cricket team for the ICC Women's World Cup 2022 ahead of their match with Pakistan.
They also urged fans to come out and show their support to the Women in Blue during their World Cup 2022 campaign.
Adrian Griffith, ICC Senior Manager - Umpires and Referees, said the appointments were part of ICC's policy of nurturing the best available talent in different countries.
The first set of games will see two massive rivalries take the centre stage, with Australia taking on defending champions England at Seddon Park in Hamilton on March 5 and last edition's runners-up India facing Pakistan in Tauranga on March 6.
