ICC unveils ‘Will to Win’ campaign for ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025

Built on the core concept of determination and perseverance leading to glory, the campaign celebrates the journey of resilience, belief and transformation that defines women’s cricket.

While India’s 12 year wait to host the mega tournament also gets a brush, the idea of cricket enabling a million dreams by empowering women from adversity to triumph, takes centre stage.

The emotionally powerful film, which can be watched on our website icc-cricket.com, traces the inspiring paths of players from their early beginnings to becoming champions on the world stage.

Through evocative storytelling and striking visuals, the campaign highlights that greatness is not built overnight, rather evolves through years of determination, sacrifice and an unshakable will to win.

The ICC brings in the spotlight to several star cricketers including India’s Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur, Sri Lanka’s Chamari Athapaththu, Australia’s Ellyse Perry, South Africa’s Marizanne Kapp, Pakistan’s Muneeba Ali, Bangladesh’s Nigar Sultana Joty, New Zealand’s Amelia Kerr and England’s Nat Sciver-Brunt through the campaign.

The visual representation weaves an emotional connection with audiences by showcasing not just the players’ present-day brilliance but also their early dreams and relentless journeys.

Jay Shah, ICC Chairman, said: “With the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup returning to India after 12 years, and given India’s leadership in championing the women’s game, the ‘Will to Win’ campaign has been thoughtfully crafted to reflect the remarkable spirit of women’s cricket through powerful, purpose-driven storytelling.

“This campaign is not just a showcase of world-class talent, it is a tribute to the journeys, sacrifices, and aspirations that define the women’s game. We believe it will resonate deeply with audiences across the globe and help further cement the enduring legacy of women’s cricket.”

Through a mix of real-time action, stylized imagery and match-cut transitions across life stages, the film captures the heartbeat of women’s cricket - millions of dreams uniting into one shared spirit of perseverance.
