Please provide more details as to what you are doing and what happens.

If you are trying to create the cluster and it fails at some point, try running kind create cluster --retain, then kind export logs to get all of the logs. Somewhere in there should be a clue as to what is going on.

Also, since you mentioned WSL, make sure you have read through https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/using-wsl2/

Note: WSL2 support is user-contributed as we lack windows CI #1529 and the maintainers use Linux+macOS locally. So far user contributions have focused on docker on WSL2, not podman on WSL2.
