The Malaysian women’s national cricket team represents the nation in international women’s cricket matches. The Malaysian Cricket Association serves as the official governing body for cricket in Malaysia, with its headquarters located in Kuala Lumpur.
History
They made their debut against Singapore on 30 April 2006, clinching victory by a margin of 58 runs. Malaysia claimed the bronze medal in the women’s tournament at the 2017 Southeast Asian Games.
Following the ICC’s decision in April 2018 to grant full Women’s Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members, Malaysia’s T20 matches against international sides since 1 July 2018 carry the esteemed WT20I status. Their first Women’s T20I took place in June 2018 against India during the 2018 Women’s Twenty20 Asia Cup.
Malaysia was included in the 2021 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier regional group. A significant milestone for women’s cricket development in Malaysia occurred in April 2021 when the Malaysian Cricket Association awarded central contracts to 15 female players.
