Cricket\u2019s most famous ground has witnessed, in its long history, moments that could compare well with the drama of a Shakespearian play. Most of them have involved men\u2019s cricket. Women haven\u2019t played as much cricket at Lord\u2019s. But times are changing. Remember, in Shakespeare\u2019s time, women were not even allowed to perform on stage, though he penned some of literature\u2019s greatest female characters.<\/p>\n<p>Lord\u2019s, in fact, is going to host next week its first ever Women\u2019s Test match, between England and India. The Englishwomen are unlikely to be thinking of that game yet, though.<\/p>\n<p>They are focussed completely on a game played in a much shorter format: the Women\u2019s T20 World Cup final against Australia on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/sportstar.thehindu.com\/cricket\/womens-cricket\/womens-t20-world-cup-2026-final-preview-england-australia-lords-head-to-head-news\/article71183358.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More from P.K.
