The Ireland women's cricket team represents Ireland in international women's cricket. Cricket in Ireland is governed by Cricket Ireland and organised on an All-Ireland basis, meaning the Irish women's team represents both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
Ireland made its One-Day International (ODI) debut in 1987, against Australia, and the following year played at the 1988 World Cup, making the first of five appearances at the tournament. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Ireland was considered to be a top-level team, playing regular ODI series and placing as high as fifth at the World Cup (in 1993, out of eight teams). In 2000, the team played its only Test match, defeating the Pakistan women's team. Although it still retains ODI status, Ireland has not qualified for a World Cup since the 2005 event. The team has, however, qualified for the ICC World Twenty20 on two occasions, in 2014 and 2016. In December 2018, Cricket Ireland offered professional contracts to the women players for the first time.{{cite web |url=http://www.cricketireland.ie/news/article/cricket-ireland-to-offer-professional-contracts-to-women-for-the-first-time |title=Cricket Ireland to offer professional contracts to women for the first time |work=Cricket Ireland |access-date=18 December 2018 |archive-date=18 December 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181218193643/http://www.cricketireland.ie/news/article/cricket-ireland-to-offer-professional-contracts-to-women-for-the-first-time |url-status=dead }}
In April 2021, the ICC awarded permanent Test and One Day International (ODI) status to all full member women's teams.{{cite news|url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/media-releases/2081342|title=The International Cricket Council (ICC) Board and Committee meetings have concluded following a series of virtual conference calls|publisher=ICC|date=1 April 2021|access-date=1 April 2021}}
History
=1980s=
The Irish women's team entered the international arena well before their male counterparts, playing their first ODIs in a three match series against Australia in 1987, a full 19 years before the men's team would make their ODI debut.{{Cite web |last=Penbugs |date=2020-06-28 |title=June 28th, 1987: Ireland played their first international match |url=https://penbugs.com/june-28th-1987-ireland-played-their-first-international-match/ |access-date=2023-04-15 |website=Penbugs |language=en-US}} They lost all three games by more than 100 runs, but were still invited to take part in the World Cup the following year in Australia.
In that World Cup, they finished fourth, losing to New Zealand in the third place play-off game. Ireland subsequently came fourth of five in the tournament, with Ireland's only two wins both came against The Netherlands. The next year, Ireland took part in the first Women's European Championship in Denmark, finishing fourth on run rate, with their only win coming against the hosts.
=1990s=
The first two years of the 1990s again saw Ireland compete in the European Championships, finishing as runners up to England in 1990, and third place in 1991. Sandwiched between those two tournaments was a 2 match ODI series against England, with England winning both games, the second by 10 wickets.
1993 saw them compete in the World Cup again, this time finishing in fifth place. The next European Championship in 1995 again saw them finish as runners up to England. Following this, they settled into a pattern of playing ODIs against whichever team was touring England, a pattern that continues to this day. The 1997 World Cup saw them lose to New Zealand in the quarter-finals. The end of the 1990s saw them again finish as runners up to England in the European Championship in 1999.
=2000s=
Ireland played their first ever Test match in 2000, beating Pakistan by an innings inside two days in Dublin.{{cite web|url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/news/685365 |title=Along with history, Ireland look to make a big first impression |work=International Cricket Council |access-date=10 May 2018}} This is still their only Test match however. They also dominated the ODI series against Pakistan, winning 4–0 with a fifth game rained off. They still could only finish seventh in the World Cup later that year though, their only win coming against The Netherlands. The following year, they won the European Championship, and that remains the only time out of seven tournaments that the England team had not won the competition.
That seventh place meant that they had to take part in the 2003 IWCC Trophy, the inaugural edition of what is now known simply as the World Cup Qualifier. They won every game in that tournament, which qualified them for the world cup in South Africa in 2005. They came last in that tournament, meaning they will have to qualify again for the 2009 World Cup. Later in the year, they yet again finished as runners up to England in the European Championship.
They played a two match ODI series against the Netherlands, winning both games. In November 2007, they went to the Women's World Cup Qualifier in Lahore, where they played Bermuda, The Netherlands, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Scotland, South Africa and an African qualifier.
In 2009, Ireland beat the Netherlands to win the European Championship.{{citation |url=http://www.cricinfo.com/women/content/current/story/418095.html |title=All-round Richardson guides Ireland to title |author=Cricinfo staff |publisher=Cricinfo |date=5 August 2009 |access-date=5 August 2009}}
In April 2016, Laura Delany was named as captain of Ireland women's cricket team replacing Isobel Joyce who stepped down after the 2016 ICC Women's World Twenty20 in India.[http://www.espncricinfo.com/women/content/story/997541.html?CMP=chrome Delany named Ireland Women captain]{{Cite web |url=http://www.newstalk.com/reader/47.302/70165/0/ |title=Laura Delany named as the new Irish cricket captain |access-date=14 April 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160424030428/http://www.newstalk.com/reader/47.302/70165/0/ |archive-date=24 April 2016 |url-status=dead }}[https://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/36037998 Laura Delany named as new Ireland women's captain]

In 2021, Ireland were awarded qualification for the 2022–25 ICC Women's Championship on the basis of their WODI ranking after the abandonment of the 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier.
On 23 January 2024, Cara Murray became the first Irish player to take six wickets in a WODI with 6/31 against Zimbabwe in Harare.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/68066900|title=Zimbabwe v Ireland: Cara Murray's 6-31 helps tourists clinch Harare ODI series|publisher=BBC Sport|accessdate=7 October 2024}}{{cite web|url=https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/cricket/cara-murrays-historic-six-wicket-haul-leads-ireland-to-zimbabwe-series-win/a1292119497.html|title=Cara Murray's historic six-wicket haul leads Ireland to Zimbabwe series win|publisher=Belfast Telegraph|accessdate=7 October 2024}}
