The South Africa women's cricket team toured Ireland to play against the Ireland women's cricket team in June 2022.[1][2] The tour consisted of three Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) and three Women's One Day International (WODI) matches.[3][4] The WODI matches were the part of 2022–2025 ICC Women's Championship.[5] In May 2022, Cricket South Africa named their squad for the tour, with Suné Luus leading the side in Dane van Niekerk's absence.[6] Likewise, Cricket Ireland named their squad, with Gaby Lewis captaining the side,[7] with Laura Delany out due to an injury.[8] Lewis also became the youngest player to captain the Ireland Women's team in international cricket.[9]
Ireland won the opening WT20I match of the tour by ten runs.[10] It was only Ireland's second win in the format against South Africa, with the first win coming in August 2016.[11] South Africa won the second match by eight wickets to level the series,[12] with Lara Goodall scoring her first half-century in WT20Is.[13] South Africa also won the third WT20I by eight wickets, to win the series 2–1.[14]
In the first WODI match, Ireland were bowled out for just 69 runs.[15] South Africa chased down the target of 70 runs in 16 overs, winning the match by nine wickets.[16] In the next match, Ireland made an improved performance when batting, making 213/8 from their 50 overs.[17] However, South Africa chased the target down with more than eleven overs to spare, winning again by nine wickets,[18] to win the series with a match to play.[19] South Africa won the third and final match by 189 runs, with Shabnim Ismail taking her second five-wicket haul in WODI cricket,[20] winning the series 3–0.[21]
