South Africa women in 2009

The South Africa women's national cricket team has played five Test matches since 1997, and 71 Twenty20 Internationals (T20I) since their first such contest in 2007. The team has represented South Africa in international women's cricket since 1960, when they hosted England, contesting four Test matches. Their next officially recognised series was against New Zealand, more than eleven years later. In 1977, they were excluded from competing in international sporting events, when the Commonwealth of Nations signed the Gleneagles Agreement as part of the international campaign against apartheid. Although the men's national team returned to international cricket in 1991, the women's team did not compete again until 1997, when they toured Ireland and England. Since then, the team has played regularly in One Day Internationals. South Africa have played four different sides in women's Test cricket, with England their most frequent opponent, having faced them in six Tests. South Africa have similarly faced England more times than any other team in women's One Day International cricket. (Full list...)
