Host country for Women Kabaddi World Cup 2025
The International Kabaddi Federation originally planned to hold the tournament in Rajgir, Bihar, from June 1 to 10. However, the state later reversed its decision, forcing organizers to move the event to Hyderabad's Gachibowli Stadium, scheduled for August 3 to 10. The venue was changed once again, this time outside India entirely, and Dhaka, Bangladesh, was chosen as the new host city.
Women Kabaddi World Cup History
The Women's World Cup is returning after 13 years, with the first edition held in Patna, Bihar in 2012. The Indian women's kabaddi team defeated Iran 25-19 in a thrilling World Cup final on home soil to lift the trophy.
The Indian team will start the upcoming Women's Kabaddi World Cup as clear favorites. However, they are expected to face a stiff challenge from arch-rivals Iran, who will be looking to avenge their defeat in the inaugural Women's Kabaddi World Cup final.
