Additional NatWest Women's International T20 Series dates have been announced for 2012
England Women will play West Indies Women in a five match T20 series with the first two games at Emirates Durham ICG and Old Trafford scheduled directly before England men take on South Africa and broadcast live on Sky Sports.
The third T20 will be played at The County Ground, Northampton on 13th September followed by the penultimate match at Hove two days later. The series will culminate with the fifth and final T20 at Arundel Cricket Club in Sussex on 16th September.
The series will be the last international competition for both teams before the ICC Women’s World T20 in Sri Lanka which starts two weeks later.
ECB Head of England Women’s Cricket Clare Connor, said: “The additional NatWest Women’s T20 Series this summer is a huge bonus for the England Women’s team and for women’s cricket. I’m delighted that international women’s cricket will be showcased alongside the England men’s matches in Durham and Manchester. Spectators will be treated to an exciting opportunity to experience two sets of double header games before the teams fly out to Sri Lanka a couple of weeks later for the ICC World Twenty20. It’s fantastic once again that two matches will be shown live on Sky Sports for viewers to experience international women’s cricket at its best.”
