The Australia women's cricket team played against New Zealand women's cricket team in March and April 2021.[1][2] The tour took place during the time that was originally scheduled to be used to host the 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup.[3] However, the tournament was postponed by one year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] The fixtures for the tour were confirmed in January 2021,[5] with three Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) and three Women's One Day International (WODI) being played.[6] The WT20I matches were played as double-headers alongside the men's fixtures between New Zealand and Bangladesh.[7]
Australia won the first WT20I by six wickets,[8] with New Zealand winning the second match by four wickets to level the series.[9] Only 2.5 overs of play was possible in the third WT20I, with the series being drawn 1–1.[10]
Australia won the first WODI by six wickets,[11] setting a new record of twenty-two consecutive wins in ODI cricket.[12] This broke the previous record of twenty-one wins set by Ricky Ponting's team of 2002–03.[13] Australia won the second WODI by 71 runs, winning the series and retaining the Rose Bowl.[14] Australia won the third WODI by 21 runs to win the series 3–0.[15]
