International cricket tour From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ireland women's cricket team played four Women's One Day Internationals (WODIs) against the Zimbabwe women's cricket team in October 2021.[1] The matches were used by both teams for their preparation for the 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament,[2] also in Zimbabwe.[3] They were the first WODI matches to be played by Ireland since June 2018, when they hosted New Zealand,[4] and the first ever WODI matches to be played by Zimbabwe since they were granted WODI status by the International Cricket Council (ICC) in April 2021.[5][6]
