List of South Africa women cricket series

Since playing their first international cricket match in December 1960, the South Africa national women's cricket team have contested a number of cricket series against other nations, in all three forms of the game: Test, One Day International and Twenty20 International cricket. A cricket series can consist of any number of individual matches, but typically includes between one and five matches.

The first international cricket match involving South Africa women was a Test match in 1960, held at St George's Park, Port Elizabeth, the same venue as the one for first men's Test match in the country in 1889,[1] and ended in a draw.[2] South Africa then played a subsequent series against New Zealand in 1971–72.[3] As part of the international campaign against apartheid, the Commonwealth of Nations signed the Gleneagles Agreement in 1977, excluding South Africa from competing in international sporting events.[4] Because of this exclusion, they did not play another Test until hosting India in 2001–02, before facing England again in 2003, the Netherlands in 2007 and most recently India in 2014.[3]

One Day International and Twenty20 International series have been contested regularly since 1997 and 2007 respectively.
