The Bangladesh women's cricket team played the Ireland women's cricket team in June and July 2018.[1][2][3] The tour consisted of three Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) matches.[4] The second match took place before the men's Twenty20 International match between Ireland and India which was played later the same day at the same venue.[4]

In the opening match, Jahanara Alam became the first woman for Bangladesh to take a five-wicket haul in international cricket.[5] Bangladesh won the opening two matches, therefore winning the series with one game to play.[6] Bangladesh won the series 2–1 with Jahanara Alam named as the player of the series.[7][8]
