The Luxembourg national women's cricket team is the team that represents Luxembourg in international women's cricket. The Luxembourg Cricket Federation became an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 1998[4] and an associate member in 2017.[1]

History

[edit]

In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches that played between Luxembourg women and other ICC members after 1 July 2018 have been eligible for full WT20I status.[5][6]

Luxembourg women played as an international team for the first time in September 2021, in a friendly match against Belgium (who were preparing for their series of T20Is against Austria in Vienna). Playing at the Robert Schuman Oval in Évrange, Belgium scored 163 for 7 (Siofra Lawlor 2-24, Lydie Wykes-Templeman 2-30, Stella Wykes-Templeman 1-24). In reply Luxembourg scored 136 for 6, losing by 27 runs. Captain Kerry Fraser (15) and Lydie Wykes-Templeman (49) put on 118 for the second wicket. Lydie Wykes-Templeman has since played T20Is for France (2022-3).


Luxembourg women national team played their first T20I match against Serbia on 5 September 2023 during the 2023 Greece Women's Quadrangular Series in Greece.
