Italy women's national cricket team

The Italy women's national cricket team is the team that represents the country of Italy in international women's cricket matches. They have been an associate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) since 1995, having previously been an affiliate member since 1984. The Italian women's national cricket team is administered by the Italian Cricket Federation.

In April 2018, the ICC granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Italy women and other ICC members after 1 July 2018 will have the full WT20I status.

History
The Italian Cricket Federation (FCI) established a domestic tournament for women in 2001. It was abandoned after two years and resumed in 2009, featuring up to seven teams before it was again abandoned in 2017. The national team made its debut in 2013, hosting a five-team tournament in Bologna that also featured Belgium, Denmark, Estonia and Gibraltar.

A new six-team national women's league was announced in 2020 and began play in 2021. Italy made its Twenty20 International debut against Austria in August 2021, hosting a five-match series. Prior to the series the FCI organised training camps in the north and south of the country before selecting a 20-woman squad. Austria won the series 3–2.

In 2023, it was announced Italy would participate in the qualifying process for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup for the first time, by playing in the Europe Division Two qualifier in Jersey.
