On May 12, FIFA announced that the 2020 U-17 Women's World Cup, set to be hosted by India, will take place from February 17, 2021, to March 7, 2021. The marquee event was originally scheduled to be held from in November this year before the ongoing Coronavirus crisis necessitated a change in schedule.

India U-17 head coach Thomas Dennerby, who is currently in Sweden, was excited to get the new dates and is raring to get back on the pitch with his squad as soon as the situation permits.
