The Ireland Women’s cricket team will tour England in September 2026 for a three-match ODI series that promises competitive cricket and vital ICC Women’s Championship points.
The series kicks off on September 1 at Leicester, followed by the second ODI in Derby on September 3, before concluding at Worcester on September 6. This tour will be an opportunity for Ireland Women to test their skills against one of the strongest sides in world cricket, while England Women will aim to continue their dominance in home conditions.
Fans can expect to see Amy Hunter and Gaby Lewis leading Ireland’s batting charge, while Heather Knight, Nat Sciver-Brunt, and Sophie Ecclestone will be key for England. With both teams eyeing valuable ranking points, each match is expected to deliver high-intensity cricket.
