The 1988 Shell Bicentennial Women's World Cup was an international cricket tournament played in Australia from 29 November to 18 December 1988. Hosted by Australia for the first time, as part of the Bicentenary celebrations, it was the fourth edition of the Women's Cricket World Cup, and came six years after the preceding 1982 World Cup in New Zealand.
The tournament was organised by the International Women's Cricket Council (IWCC), with matches played over 60 overs. Australia won the tournament for a third consecutive time, defeating England in the final by eight wickets. New Zealand defeated Ireland in the third-place playoff, while the Netherlands, the only other team at the tournament, placed fifth and last after failing to win a single match. Both Ireland and the Netherlands were making their tournament debuts. India had been invited to compete, as they had at the previous two tournaments, but were forced to withdraw after failing to secure enough money from sponsors.[1] Two Australians, Lindsay Reeler and Lyn Fullston, led the tournament in runs and wickets, respectively.[2][3] The player of the series was English all-rounder Carole Hodges, who placed third for runs scored and second for wickets taken.[4] She received a Waterford Crystal trophy valued at A$4,000, donated by an Irish firm, R&A Bailey.[5]
Note: run rate was to be used as a tiebreaker in the case of teams finishing on an equal number of points, rather than net run rate (as is now common).[14]
Australia won by 255 runs Willetton Sports Club (No. 1 Oval), Perth
Australia won the toss and elected to bat.
Australia's Lindsay Reeler, who scored 143 not out, broke the record for the highest individual score in an ODI, which had been set by England's Janette Brittin at the 1982 World Cup. It was not beaten until February 1997.[15]
Australia broke the record for the largest winning margin (by runs) in an ODI match, which had been set by New Zealand at the 1982 World Cup. It was not beaten until January 1997.[16]
Australia also broke the record for the highest score in an ODI match, although it was beaten less than a week later, when New Zealand scored 297/5 against the same team.[17]
The Netherlands broke the record for the lowest score in an ODI match, which had been set by India at the 1982 World Cup. It was not beaten until February 1997.[18]
New Zealand broke the record for the highest score in an ODI match, which had been set less than a week earlier, by Australia against the same team. It was not beaten until January 1997.[17]
The final, held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, was broadcast live on radio and on ABC Television.[20] It was attended by around 3,000 people, although the ground had a capacity at the time of over 90,000.[21]Janette Brittin, who played for England in the match, later described the venue as having "wall-to-wall seating with no one sitting in them", making it "a very large and a very lonely place".[22] No women's cricket had been played there since 1949.[21]
