Cricket Australia introduced the Women's Big Bash League in 2015-16, and the league is played in the same format as the men's. The team names are also the same, and it gives good exposure to the young and upcoming female players in Australia.
The Indian women played a T20 match last year on the day of the IPL final in what seemed to be the first step towards the initiation of the Women's IPL. However, till now there has been no further development in that direction, and it is unlikely that the Women's IPL will be held this year.
Looking at the failures of the women's team in the T20 format, the BCCI should consider commencing a T20 league like the IPL for the Indian female cricketers in the near future.
