The West Indies women's cricket team played the New Zealand women's cricket team in March 2018.[1] The tour consisted of three Women's One Day Internationals (WODIs) and five Women's Twenty20 Internationals (WT20Is). The WODI games were part of the 2017–20 ICC Women's Championship.[2] New Zealand umpire Kathy Cross announced that she would retire from international umpiring at the end of the WT20I series.[3]

New Zealand Women won the WODI series 3–0[4] and the WT20I series 4–0, after the fourth WT20I match was washed out.[5]
