The Estonia women's national cricket team represents the country of Estonia in women's cricket matches. The team is organised by the Estonian Cricket Association, an associate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC).

In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Estonia women and other ICC members since 1 July 2018 have the full WT20I status.[4]

History

[edit]

Sometime in 2012, Finland visited Estonia for a cricket tour. The venue for this cricket trip was Tallinn, Estonia.[5]

In July 2012, Estonia played in a T20 European Tournament at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd in Utrecht against Belgium, Germany, Gibraltar, Jersey, and a Netherlands Invitation XI side.[6] Jersey defeated Germany in the final.[7]

In August 2013, Estonia participated in a five-team tournament in Bologna (along with Denmark, Gibraltar, Italy and Belgium), with Italy winning the tournament.[6][8]

On the 26 August 2023, the side played its first T20I, as part of the Women's Nordic Cup, losing to Norway by 9 wickets.[9] Later that year they played a 4 match ECI (T10) series in Malta, losing the series 0 – 4.[10]

The Malta Women's Cricket team travelled to Estonia for a 5 match ECI (T10) series, broadcast on the European Cricket Network, Estonia won the series 4 – 1.[10]

On the 20th and 21 April 2024, Estonia visited Gibrlatar and played a 3 match T20i series, they lost all 3 games.[10]

In June 2024 they went to Cyprus to play a 5 game ECI (T10) series and 6 T20i's. Cyprus won the ECI's 4 – 1 and the T20i's 4 – 0. A match was abandoned due to a dangerous pitch.[10]
