Women's T20 Quadrangular Series (in Switzerland) 2026/27

The Women's T20 Quadrangular Series is an international cricket tournament hosted in Switzerland. It marked the first occasion the nation staged an ICC-recognized Women's T20 International event. Organised by Cricket Switzerland in association with the European Cricket Network, the competition gathered four national squads in July 2026. The participating sides were Switzerland Women, Brazil Women, Jersey Women, and Spain Women.

Unlike the Cricket Switzerland Women’s League, a domestic club competition established in 2023, this series carries international status and awards ICC ranking points. The structure differed from standard domestic formats. Teams played a round-robin group stage, facing each other once. This was followed by a final and a third-place playoff. Brazil Women claimed the title after defeating Spain Women in the championship match.

The event highlights the development of women's cricket beyond traditional European strongholds. By including teams from South America and the Channel Islands, the tournament expanded its geographical reach. This approach contrasts with the local domestic structure, where the women's league operates as a single tier without promotion or relegation to the national team level. The inclusion of non-European nations distinguishes this series from regional fixtures.

Crickets history in Switzerland dates back to its founding in 1980, though this specific tournament represents a recent milestone for the women's game. The competition serves as a platform for emerging nations to test themselves against established European sides. Results in the group stage determined the path to the knockout rounds. Spain Women secured the runner-up position, while the third-place playoff resolved the remaining positions among the participants.

The series format allowed for competitive matches across multiple days. Each team had the opportunity to face every other participant directly. The final standings reflected the performance in both the group phase and the playoff matches. Brazil's victory underscored their strength in this particular configuration of teams. The tournament provided a structured environment for international competition outside of major global events.
