You said it right, sexual harrasment is another reason why women sports are not finding many real talent and even if a girl is trying to expose those abusers where no action will be taken because of authority is in their hands so they decide what they want and surely they will end the future of the girl in that sports field.
Even in cricket, I have heard about such incidents. However, I need to say that during the last one or two decades, a lot has changed (for the better). Earlier anyone raising such allegations used to get hounded in to silence and the perpetrator would remain at the same post. But with social media getting stronger and people getting more educated, such incidents are being probed and actions being taken.
This article is very informative on the subject:

A few months ago, two women cricketers of Andhra Pradesh had charged secretary of the Andhra Pradesh Cricket Association V. Chamundeshwar Nath for harassing them, demanding sexual favours. Though the incident kicked up a ruckus in the Andhra and Hyderabad cricket circles, the official seemed to have bought his peace, as the girls have fallen silent on their complaint.
Once upon a time, women’s cricket, too, was controlled by male officials, who made no secret of their taste for the "good things in life". Once, during a national camp for women cricketers in Delhi, a player confessed to a friendly official that she always carried condoms in her kit bag, as she never knew when she had to oblige an official of the cricket body to get into the playing eleven—or even the team—of the Indian squad.
