History

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 Brazil women and another international side since 1 July 2018 have been full WT20I matches.[5]

Brazil's first WT20I matches were contested as part of the South American Women's Championships in August 2018 against Chile, Mexico and Peru (although Peru's matches were not classified as WT20Is as not all of their players met the ICC residency requirements).[6] Brazil won all group stage matches and won in the final against Chile by a margin of 92 runs.[7]

In January 2020, Cricket Brazil awarded central contracts to fourteen of its players.[8][9]

In December 2020, the ICC announced the qualification pathway for the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.[10] Brazil were named in the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier regional group, alongside three other teams.[11] In that qualifier, Brazil finished second,[12] and also achieved a miraculous one-run win over Canada, by taking five wickets in the last five consecutive deliveries of the two teams' second T20I match against each other.[13]
