Amidst the aftermath of unprecedented rains in the UAE, the country's women's cricket team faced an overlooked challenge in their journey towards the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup qualifiers. Comprising players from expatriate communities, the UAE team has made remarkable strides in recent years, culminating in their participation in the global qualifiers. Despite lacking a robust infrastructure for women's cricket until 2010, the team earned the opportunity to compete in the final qualifying tournament from April 24 to May 7 in Abu Dhabi.

However, their preparations were marred by the cancellation of the 2024 United Arab Emirates Women's Quadrangular Series, a warm-up event featuring the UAE, Netherlands, Scotland, and the US, due to the adverse weather conditions. Undeterred by this setback, the UAE women embarked on their quest for World Cup qualification with determination.

Despite facing challenges posed by inclement weather, the team remains undeterred in their pursuit of victory.
