History

In 2011 Germany finished runner-up to Jersey in the European Women's Cricket Festival hosted in Utrecht, Netherlands. [5]

In April 2018, the ICC granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Germany women and other ICC members after 1 July 2018 have the full WT20I status. [6] On 26 June 2019, in the opening fixture of the 2019 ICC Women's Qualifier Europe tournament, Germany played their first ever WT20I match. [7]

Germany was invited to the 2022 Kwibuka Women's T20 Tournament in Rwanda, becoming one of the first two non-African teams to participate in the tournament along with Brazil. [8] [9] Germany lost seven consecutive matches in the round-robin stage of the tournament, before defeating Botswana in the seventh-place play-off. [10]
