The Rose Bowl is a bilateral cricket trophy contested between the New Zealand Women and Australia Women. Awarded to the winner of the One Day International leg of their Trans-Tasman series, the competition sits within the international cricket pyramid as a fixture between two Full Member nations.
The rivalry dates back to the first Women's Test in 1975, but the ODI component specifically began in 1988. The Rose Bowl trophy itself dates to the 1984–85 season, though the ODI rivalry is established from 1988. The series is not a standalone league but a bilateral fixture, though matches often count towards the ICC Women's Championship points.
Australia is the dominant force, having held the trophy continuously since 2000. New Zealand last won it in 1999. As of the December 2024 series in New Zealand, Australia retained the Rose Bowl by winning 2–0, with one match abandoned.
The format typically consists of a three-match or five-match ODI series. This distinguishes the Rose Bowl from T20I series, which are standalone without a specific trophy. Test matches are rare and historical, with fourteen Tests played in total as of 2024, the last in 2024. The competition is distinct from domestic leagues like the Super Smash or Women's National Cricket League.
