The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Thursday unveiled a social media moderation programme aimed at fostering a healthier, more supportive online community for players, teams, and fans alike, setting a new standard for online safety and inclusivity as it gears up for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024.

Ahead of the mega tournament, over 60 players have already signed up for the initiative, with more expected to join. At the heart of this programme is a revolutionary blend of technology and human oversight, provided by 'GoBubble', it said in a release.

The software is designed to protect the cricketing community from toxic content such as hate speech, harassment, and misogyny. The goal is clear: to safeguard the mental health of players and ensure a safer, kinder digital space.
