UAE Women’s team set to tour Zimbabwe for six-game white-ball assignment
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) women’s cricket team is gearing up for an exciting tour of Zimbabwe, where they will face the Zimbabwe women in a series of six white-ball matches. Starting on September 26, 2025, the UAE squad will compete in ODIs and T20Is.
The UAE women's team will play four ODIs followed by two T20Is, with the matches set to take place at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. The series follows Zimbabwe Women’s triumph at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier held in Namibia earlier this month, a victory that sealed their place at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Global Qualifier 2026 set for January-February in Nepal.
"The UAE series is very important to us and it fits perfectly in our plans as we prepare for the Global Qualifier early next year,” Zimbabwe Women’s head coach Walter Chawaguta said.
“It gives us the momentum that we need as a team and, at the same time, it also gives us an opportunity to look at some of the players who have been out due to injury and are now making a comeback."
“The timing is also good because it allows us enough space after the series to regroup and address any issues that may have come up. UAE are a good side, with strong batters and bowlers, and they will challenge us as we get ready for the Qualifier.”
Fixtures:
1st ODI - September 26, Queen Sports Club
2nd ODI - September 28, Queen Sports Club
3rd ODI - September 30, Queen Sports Club
4th ODI - October 2, Queen Sports Club
