Looks like the kiwi women don't get to play too many tests either. Do they still have test status?

 

[andrew_nixon]

Yeah they do. Test status teams for women are the same as men except with Ireland and the Netherlands instead of Zimbabwe and Bangladesh. Ireland, Netherlands, South Africa and Pakistan will have to play in an 8 team tournament next year to retain their Test and ODI status.

Test's aren't played that much in Women's cricket. So far this century there have only been 19 Tests. 14 of them have involved England.

This is basically the battle of the top 2, well it was when I last payed attention to the womens form of the game. Should be a good close series.
