Cricket Australia confirm full multi-year Women's Future Tours Programme

Cricket Australia have confirmed a huge multi-year plan for the national women's team, with a plethora of both home and away series locked in all the way through until 2026.

After their recent success at the Commonwealth Games, the likes of Alyssa Healy, Alana King and Rachael Haynes will be back in action in late-2022 against India in a five-game T20 series. 

The new programme features two Ashes series against England, as well as an increased focus on multi-format series against the likes of India and South Africa. 

CA head of cricket operations and scheduling said it was their responsibility to put on the best cricket possible and continue to grow the women's game. 

“We are pleased to have locked in a women’s schedule that aligns with many of our key priorities for Australian Cricket," he said. 

“Our world champion women’s team have produced epic encounters against both India and England in recent years and to lock in multiple home and away series, including a standalone women’s Ashes in 2025, is a terrific outcome.
 
“We recognise our responsibilities to the game globally and the positive impact we can have on emerging markets and feel this schedule also supports those goals.
 
“Importantly, most of our home content will remain in our preferred window of January and February and ensures a clear window for Australian cricketers to participate in the WBBL.

“We have seen the benefits, in both skill development and earning capacity, that come from participation in the WBBL and the Hundred and it was a shared priority to ensure these opportunities continue for players."
