Ireland Women Cricket Schedule 2026-27: Fixtures & Results
Next match: England Women vs Ireland Women, 1st ODI at Uptonsteel County Ground, Leicester on 1 September 2026 at 5:00 pm PKT.
Data checked 28 August 2026
The Ireland Women cricket schedule for 2026-27 currently contains three exact upcoming internationals: the Women’s Championship ODI series in England from 1 to 6 September 2026.
Ireland Women’s next match is the first ODI at Uptonsteel County Ground in Leicester on 1 September at 1 p.m. BST, which is 5 p.m. PKT.
Ireland Women’s confirmed 2026-27 series
| Series | Dates | Exact matches | Format | Host |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ireland Women tour of England | 1-6 September 2026 | 3 | ODI | England |
| Ireland Women tour of Zimbabwe | Early 2027 | Dates not announced | ODI series | Zimbabwe |
Only the England matches appear in the live fixture table. Cricket Ireland has confirmed the Zimbabwe tour, but not its match dates, grounds or start times.
England Women vs Ireland Women ODI schedule
Ireland’s three-match England tour is:
- 1 September: Uptonsteel County Ground, Leicester, 5 p.m. PKT
- 3 September: Central Co-op County Ground, Derby, 5 p.m. PKT
- 6 September: New Road, Worcester, 2:30 p.m. PKT
The later Cricket Ireland squad release lists a 10:30 a.m. local start at Worcester. That replaces the 1 p.m. start in an older programme announcement. The England Women’s schedule uses these same three controlled match records, so the dates and times cannot drift between the two pages.
All three ODIs count towards the 2025-29 ICC Women’s Championship, the qualification competition for the 2029 Women’s Cricket World Cup.
The 29 August match is a warm-up
Ireland also plays an ECB Development XI at Leicester on 29 August. It is a warm-up rather than a senior Women’s ODI, so it is not counted among the three internationals and does not appear in the schedule table.
This matters because broad fixture feeds often mix warm-ups and international matches without a clear label.
Early-2027 Zimbabwe tour: confirmed, dates pending
Cricket Ireland says Ireland Women will tour Zimbabwe Women in early 2027. The series belongs to the new Women’s Championship cycle, but a match-ready itinerary has not been published.
The 2027 international cricket calendar therefore records the tour as a programme commitment rather than inventing dates or venues. Exact rows will be added here after Cricket Ireland or Zimbabwe Cricket announces them.
Ireland Women’s Championship opponents
Across the 2025-29 cycle, Ireland is scheduled to host India, New Zealand, Pakistan and West Indies, and tour England, Australia, Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka.
The home West Indies series is complete and the England series is next. The other pairings remain useful future context, but an opponent and a month do not supply enough information for an exact fixture row.
Recent results: West Indies ODI sweep
West Indies won all three July ODIs at Bready. The margins were nine wickets, six wickets and 64 runs. Those are Ireland’s latest completed senior internationals and appear first in Recent results.
The series began Ireland’s current Women’s Championship campaign. The ODI format guide explains the 50-over structure used in both the West Indies and England series.
Ireland’s first Women’s T20 World Cup win
Ireland finished its June World Cup campaign by beating West Indies by six wickets in Bristol. It was Ireland’s first win in the Women’s T20 World Cup after 22 matches across five appearances.
The result stays in the recent table because it is a durable milestone, alongside the Sri Lanka and New Zealand Women group matches. The T20 World Cup winners list places Ireland’s breakthrough in the wider tournament history.
Times are shown in PKT
Britain is four hours behind Pakistan during British Summer Time. The 1 p.m. starts in Leicester and Derby display as 5 p.m. PKT, while the 10:30 a.m. Worcester start displays as 2:30 p.m. PKT.
The cricket abbreviations guide explains IRE-W, ODI, T20I, TBC and TBD. A confirmed tour without exact dates remains outside the table until those details are announced.
What this schedule excludes
This page covers the senior Ireland women’s international team. It excludes Ireland Women A, under-19s, domestic cricket, warm-ups, exhibition matches and Ireland Men.
The Ireland men’s schedule remains separate so similarly named tours never mix the two teams.
