England women's cricket team in New Zealand in 2020–21

The England women's cricket team is scheduled to play against New Zealand women's cricket team in February and March 2021.[1][2][3] The tour is scheduled to be played during the time that was originally scheduled to be used to host the 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup,[4] after the tournament was postponed by one year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] The fixtures for the tour were confirmed in January 2021,[6] with three Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) and three Women's One Day International (WODI) scheduled to be played.[7] The WT20I matches are scheduled to take place on the same day as the New Zealand men's fixtures at the same venues.[8]
