2022 Women's T20I Pacific Cup

International cricket tournament

The 2022 Women's T20I Pacific Cup was a women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) cricket tournament that took place in Port Vila, Vanuatu, from 3 to 6 October 2022.[1] It was the inaugural edition of the Women's T20I Pacific Cup. The participants were the women's national sides of Vanuatu, Fiji, Papua New Guinea and Samoa.[2][3] Papua New Guinea had entered the event after recently competing in the 2022 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Qualifier in Abu Dhabi, but the other three teams had not played an international fixture since the Pacific Games cricket tournament in July 2019.[4]

Papua New Guinea and Vanuatu each won both of their matches on the opening day of the tournament.[5] Papua New Guinea again won twice on the second day of the event, while Samoa avenged their opening day loss to the hosts by picking up two wins on the day.[6] A 10-wicket win against Samoa on the final day saw Papua New Guinea secure top spot in the table, before the last two games were abandoned due to rain.[7]
