The 2022 Women's South American Cricket Championship was a cricket tournament held in Itaguaí, Brazil from 13 to 16 October 2022.[1] This was the twelfth edition of the women's South American Cricket Championship,[2] and the third in which the matches were eligible for WT20I status since the ICC granted Twenty20 International (T20I) status to matches between all of its members.[3]
The four participating teams this year were the national sides of hosts Brazil, along with Argentina, Peru and for the first time Canada.[2] Brazil were the defending champions having won the event in 2019.[4] Canada's matches did not have official T20I status in this tournament.[2]
Tournaments for under-15s and under-19s took place earlier in October 2022, and the Men's South American Championship followed the women's event.[1]
