The Sierra Leone women's national cricket team represents the country of Sierra Leone in international women's cricket.
In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Sierra Leone women and another international side since 1 July 2018 have been full WT20I matches.[4]
Sierra Leone's first WT20I matches were contested as part of the Botswana 7s tournament in August 2018 against Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia and Zambia (matches against Zambia did not have WT20I status).[5] Sierra Leone finished second in the table, with four wins and one loss[6] and lost the final against Namibia by a margin of nine wickets.[7][8]
In December 2020, the ICC announced the qualification pathway for the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.[9] Sierra Leone were named in the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Africa Qualifier regional group, alongside ten other teams.[10]
