The 2020 Australia women's Tri-Nation Series was a cricket tournament that took place in Australia in January and February 2020.[1][2] It was a tri-nation series between Australia women, England women and the India women cricket teams, with the matches played as Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) fixtures.[3][4] All three teams used the series as their final warm-up ahead of the 2020 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.[5]

Ahead of the fifth match of the series, the Australian team were presented with the ICC Women's Championship trophy, after winning the 2017–20 ICC Women's Championship tournament.[6] In the sixth match, Australia beat England by 16 runs, to advance to the final along with India.[7] In the final, Australia beat India by 11 runs to win the series,[8] with Jess Jonassen taking her first five-wicket haul in a WT20I match.[9]
