# Germany women's national cricket team

The Germany woman's national cricket team is the team that represents the country of Germany in international women's cricket matches. The team is organised by German Cricket Federation and has been an associate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) since 1999. Germany was previously an affiliate member from 1991 to 1999.

## History

In 2011 Germany finished runner-up to Jersey in the European Women's Cricket Festival hosted in Utrecht, Netherlands.
In April 2018, the ICC granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Germany women and other ICC members after 1 July 2018 have the full WT20I status. On 26 June 2019, in the opening fixture of the 2019 ICC Women's Qualifier Europe tournament, Germany played their first ever WT20I match.
Germany was invited to the 2022 Kwibuka Women's T20 Tournament in Rwanda, becoming one of the first two non-African teams to participate in the tournament along with Brazil. Germany lost seven consecutive matches in the round-robin stage of the tournament, before defeating Botswana in the seventh-place play-off.
