Women’s cricket fans are in for an exciting series as New Zealand Women host Zimbabwe Women for a three-match T20I series and a three-match ODI series from February 25 to March 11, 2026. All T20Is will be played in Hamilton, while the ODIs will take place in Dunedin, making it a great opportunity for fans in both cities to watch top-tier women’s cricket live.
The tour starts with two night T20Is at Seddon Park in Hamilton, followed by a day game for the third T20I. The ODI series will be hosted entirely at the University Oval in Dunedin, giving fans a concentrated dose of 50-over action.
With the White Ferns likely to feature stars like Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates, and Amelia Kerr, and Zimbabwe bringing their spirited squad led by Mary-Anne Musonda and Josephine Nkomo, this series promises competitive cricket in both formats.
