England have announced their 2026 home fixtures, with the ICC Women's T20 World Cup serving as the flagship event.
England Women will begin their international summer with a white-ball series against New Zealand Women, consisting of three ODIs and three T20Is between May 10 and 25.
For the second time in nearly a year, India Women will tour England for a T20I series. The hosts suffered a 3-2 defeat in their recent encounter. The three T20Is will be followed by a one-off women’s Test at Lord's, reigniting a red-ball rivalry that last saw India triumph by 347 runs in December 2023.
England will then host the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup (June 12–July 5), with the final at Lord’s. They’ll conclude their home summer with a three-match ODI series against Ireland Women.

England Men’s summer schedule will begin with a three-Test series against New Zealand in June. The hosts will look to build on their 2-1 away victory over the Black Caps in late 2024.
The action then shifts to white-ball cricket, with India – currently engaged in a five-Test series in England – returning to play five T20Is and three ODIs between July 1 and 19.
Pakistan will then tour England for their first Test series in six years, having last suffered a 1-0 defeat in 2020. The three-match series will be followed by England’s home summer finale: three ODIs and three T20Is against Sri Lanka (September 15–27).
