Background

The tournament is privately-run by FairBreak Global, with the aim of improving differences in pay, quality of play, and opportunity between men and women in cricket. The tournament is run in conjunction with Cricket Hong Kong, and was originally scheduled to be held in Hong Kong, but was moved to Dubai due to COVID-19 restrictions in Hong Kong.[1][2] The tournament is seen as the first of its kind, and follows FairBreak teams being fielded in exhibition matches since 2013.[4]
