Canterbury to host Women’s International T20 in Summer 2024
International T20 cricket will return to Canterbury on Thursday 11 July 2024 when The Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence hosts the 3rd match in England’s IT20 series against New Zealand.
It is only the second time that Canterbury has hosted a Women’s International T20 match in its long history, and will be another boost for the continued growth of women’s cricket in Kent.
England Women will host New Zealand, who may feature former Kent Women stars such as Suzie Bates in their ranks, in a three-match Women’s ODI Series (June 26 – July 3) and a five-match IT20 Series (July 6-17).
England Women will play across 14 venues in total – including Edgbaston, The Kia Oval, The Ageas Bowl and Headingley – before finishing their schedule with the fifth IT20 against New Zealand Women at Lord’s on July 17.
