Ireland Women have landed in Zimbabwe for their three ODI and five T20I series against Zimbabwe Women set to start this week in Harare.
The ODIs are scheduled for 18, 21 and 23 January, followed by the T20Is on 26, 28 and 30 January and 1 and 2 February.
The two teams last met in an ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Global Qualifier decider in 2022 when Ireland Women won by four runs to seal their place at the last ICC Women’s T20 World Cup.

Before the series gets underway, the Irish will face a Zimbabwe Women ‘A’ side in a 50-over warm-up match set for 16 January at Sunrise Sports Club.
