History In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Argentina women and another international side after 1 July 2018 have the full WT20I status. In 2018, Sian Kelly was appointed as the team's coach, becoming the first female head coach of the Argentine women's cricket team.
Argentina made their WT20I debut at the 2019 South American Cricket Championship in Lima, in October 2019, where they were defeated by Brazil in the final.
In December 2020, the ICC announced the qualification pathway for the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup. Argentina were named in the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier regional group, alongside three other teams.
In 2026, Gary Grewal was appointed as head coach of the Argentina women’s national cricket team, with María Castiñeiras named captain. Under their leadership, Argentina embarked on a period of significant progress.
In July 2026, Argentina hosted Canada in a seven-match Women’s Twenty20 International (WT20I) bilateral series. Fielding a youthful squad with an average age of 20, including five debutants, Argentina won the series 5–1. The result marked one of the most significant achievements in the team’s history and propelled Argentina from 62nd to 46th in the ICC Women’s T20I Team Rankings.
