The Malawi women's national cricket team represents the country of Malawi in women's cricket matches.

Contents

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 Malawi women and other ICC members since 1 July 2018 have the full WT20I status. [5]

Malawi's first WT20I matches were contested as part of the Botswana 7s tournament in August 2018 against Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia, Sierra Leone and Zambia (Zambia's matches were not classified as WT20Is as they had a Botswanan player in their squad). [6] Malawi finished fifth on the table with one win and four losses [7] and won the fifth place play-off against Lesotho by nine wickets. [8]

In December 2020, the ICC announced the qualification pathway for the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup. [9] The Malawi women's team are scheduled to make their debut at an ICC women's event when they play in the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier group. [10]
