The New Zealand women's national cricket team toured India from 28 June to 15 July playing a series of five One Day Internationals (ODIs) and three Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is). All the tour matches (five ODIs, three T20I and one tour match against India A Women) were hosted at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore. Initially Alur (North Bangalore) was selected to host the three T20I, but eventually the matches were moved to M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The first three of five ODIs matches were part of the 2014–16 ICC Women's Championship. The hosts won the ODI series by 3–2, whereas the tourists secured a victory in T20I series by 2–1.
