The Guyana women's national cricket team is the women's representative cricket team of the country of Guyana. They compete in the Women's Super50 Cup and the Twenty20 Blaze.

History

Guyana joined the West Indies domestic structure in 1977, competing in the Federation Championships, in which they finished 4th out of 5 teams. ^[1] They competed again in the next edition of the tournament, 1980, winning two matches, against Grenada and Barbados. ^[2]

Guyana then did not compete in any tournaments until 2001, losing every match in their return season. ^[3] They have competed in most tournaments since, with a brief hiatus in 2006 and 2007, and joined the Twenty20 Blaze for its inaugural season in 2012. ^[4] In 2013, they reached the semi-finals of the T20 competition before losing to eventual winners Jamaica. ^[5] They achieved their best finish in the 50-over competition in 2014, reaching the final before losing to Jamaica. ^[6]

In the most recent season, 2023, Guyana finished as runners-up in the Twenty20 Blaze and finished 5th in the Super50 Cup. ^{[7] [8]}
