Australia women's cricket team toured Sri Lanka in September 2016. The tour consisted of a series of four One Day Internationals (ODIs) and one Twenty20 International (T20I). Three of the four WODIs were part of the ongoing 2014–16 ICC Women's Championship.[1] Australia won the ODI series 4–0 and the one-off T20I match by 10 wickets.
