The Hong Kong women's cricket team represents the Chinese special administrative region of Hong Kong 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 Hong Kong women and other ICC members after 1 July 2018 will be a full WT20I. Hong Kong made its Twenty20 International debut against Indonesia on 12 January 2019 at Bangkok during the Thailand Women's T20 Smash.
History
They made their international debut in September 2006, playing against Pakistan in a three match series of one-day games to decide which country would represent the Asia region in the Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier in Ireland in 2007. They lost the series 3-0 after a series of heavy defeats, two by more than 200 runs.
Hong Kong won the 2009 ACC Women's Twenty20 Championship, then defended their title and won the tournament again in 2011, narrowly defeating China with three balls to spare.
In 2010 Asian Games, Hong Kong team lost to Nepal as they finished 7th in the tournament at Guanggong Cricket Stadium in Guangzhou.
In 2014 Asian Games, Hong Kong team reached quarter-finals where they lost to Sri Lanka at Yeonhui Cricket Ground in Incheon.
In 2017, the Hong Kong women's team won the 2017 Women's Twenty20 East Asia Cup, with Yasmin Daswani awarded Player of the Tournament
In December 2020, the ICC announced the qualification pathway for the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup. Hong Kong were named in the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier regional group, alongside seven other teams.
On 11 February 2024, Mariko Hill became the first Hong Kong player to score a century in a WT20I century, making 100 not out against the Maldives at the ACC Women's Premier Cup in Malaysia.
