The Ireland women's cricket team represents Ireland in international women's cricket. Cricket in Ireland is organised on an All-Ireland basis, meaning the Irish women's cricket team represents both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The team is a full member of the International Cricket Council (ICC), being governed by Cricket Ireland.
The Irish women's team played their first-ever Women's One Day International (WODI) match on 28 June 1987, against Australia in a bilateral series. They participated in the Women's Cricket World Cup for the first time in the 1988 edition. Ireland got their first WODI win on 30 November 1988, beating the Netherlands by 86 runs. As of March 2024, they have played 173 WODIs against fourteen different opponents, resulting in 49 victories and 116 defeats for an overall winning percentage of 29.81. They have the fifth most defeats of any team in this format. They have played their highest number of matches against the Netherlands (25). They have been most successful against the same team, winning 23 WODI matches against them. They have also recorded the highest number of wins (4) against the Netherlands in the Women's Cricket World Cup. Ireland have lost 18 out of their 20 WODI matches against South Africa, the highest number of defeats for Ireland against any team in the format.
Ireland made their debut in Women's Test cricket on 30 July 2001 against Pakistan, winning the match by an innings and 54 runs. In April 2021 the Ireland women's cricket team was awarded permanent Test status by the ICC along with all full member women' teams, despite the match with Pakistan being Ireland's only Test match.
Ireland women's team competed in the short form of international cricket for the first time in 2008, when they played against the West Indies in a one-off Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I). They have played a total of 115 WT20I matches, recording 45 wins and 69 defeats for an overall winning percentage of 39.47.
