History
editSometime in 2012, Finland's women's team visited Estonia for a cricket trip against Estonian women. The venue for this cricket trip was Tallinn, Estonia. It was the first-ever international cricket tour for Finland women.[3]
In 2023, the Finland women's team hosted 2023 Nordic Women T20 Cup. The tournament also featured teams from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Estonia.[4] Finland came second in the tournament, although, their matches were not counted as T20 international matches.[citation needed]
