A new chapter in European women’s cricket awaits as the Gibraltar women’s cricket team embarks on their maiden bilateral tour of Estonia from August 2nd to 3rd, 2025, to contest a riveting three-match T20 International series. This historic visit not only marks the first time Gibraltar Women will set foot in Estonia for competitive cricket but also signals the growing ambition and reach of emerging women’s teams across the continent.
Everything You Need to Know About Gibraltar Women’s Tour of Estonia, Starting August 2
Gibraltar arrives in Tallinn fresh from a spirited performance in the 2025 Women’s Central Europe Cup held in the Czech Republic just last month. The team has registered 8 wins from 13 games, losing 5. There, the side showcased commendable progress, notching up two wins from four matches against Austria and the hosts Czech Republic, striking a balance between promise and resilience. Both their victories came against the hosts Czech Republic. For Gibraltar, this tour represents a vital opportunity to build on their recent gains, further gel as a unit in foreign conditions, and assert themselves on a new frontier.
For Estonia, the series is a chance at redemption on home soil. After a challenging campaign in July’s Tri-nation series in Finland, where a late victory over the hosts partly salvaged a run otherwise marred by three consecutive losses, the Estonia squad will be eager to regroup and leverage their familiarity with local pitches. In 20 T20Is so far, they have registered 4 wins and lost 15. The impending battles with Gibraltar offer Estonia an invaluable platform to test their depth, strategise anew, and pursue consistency after glimpses of potential in Helsinki.
As both teams gear up for this unprecedented face-off, the stage is set not just for competitive T20 cricket but for the rich exchange of culture, camaraderie, and cricketing spirit so vital to the development of the women’s game in Europe. Head-to-head, Gibraltar has registered 3 wins over Estonia in their face-off so far.
