The Canadian women's national cricket team is the team that represents the country of Canada in international women's cricket matches. They made their international debut in September 2006 in a three match series of one-day games against Bermuda to decide which team would represent the Americas region in the Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier in Ireland in 2007. Canada started well, with a five wicket win in the first win - Game 1,[1] but Bermuda came back with 24 run win in the second - Game 2.[2] The third game went down to the wire, with Bermuda triumphing by just 3 runs - Game 3.[3]
In 2007 Canada won the inaugural ICC Americas Championship held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. They recorded victories over Argentina[4] and Bermuda.[5] They also played an exhibition game against Trinidad and Tobago under-17s.[6]
In 2009 Canada successfully defended the ICC Americas Championship in Florida, United States, with wins in the T20 portion of the competition over Argentina[7] and Bermuda.[8] Following this, they defeated the United States[9] and had a washout versus Argentina[10] which left them atop the points table.
In 2010 a regional qualifier was held in Toronto Canada between Canada and the United States. Canada lost all three 50 over matches, Game 1,[11] Game 2,[12] Game 3[13] resulting in the United States qualifying for the World Cup qualifier held in Bangladesh 2011. Canada did however win both T20 games held following the qualifier, Game 1[14] and Game 2.[15]
In 2012 the ICC Americas T20 Women's Championship was held in the Cayman Islands. Canada registered wins over Brazil,[16] Bermuda,[17] Cayman Islands,[18] and Argentina.[19] The final match versus the United States was a washout, resulting in Canada winning the tournament with a superior net run rate.
Canada now look to 2013 where they will be representing the Americas in the T20 World Cup Qualifiers.
