Canadian Women's cricket

[Victorian]

Looks like Tan won the series 2-1. Canada scored 114 but came up 10 runs short.

^ This does not inspire confidence in the womens U19 program and the development of womens national teams in general.

Cheema mentions the U19 qualifier next year. Is he saying there will definitely be an Americas U19 womens qualifier (for the first time) and Canada will actually field a team ? How good can the level of competition be at these "U19 Girls Nationals" if young teens are participating ? It seems as though Cricket Canada can't find enough age group women and is forced to make up the numbers with an all-ages tournament.

Well, the coach wasn't talking out of his hat. Canada will host the inaugural Americas women's U19 Qualifier August 7 to 17, 2026. No info yet on which teams will compete but the embarrassment for Canada and the region of not being to field a women's youth teams is to end. About nine months out from the start and Canada has yet to field a representative side at this level.
