The Nepal women's national cricket team (Nepali: नेपाल महिला राष्ट्रिय क्रिकेट टोली) represents Nepal in international women's cricket. They made their international debut in the ACC Women's Tournament in Malaysia in July 2007. Nepal has been participating in various international tournaments since then.

Manoj Katwal serves as the head coach of the team whereas Indu Barma captains the team in all formats. Bindu Rawal serves as the vice-captain of the team.

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 Nepal women and another international side after 1 July 2018 will be a full WT20I.[4] Nepal made their Twenty20 International debut on 12 January 2019 against China, at the 2019 Thailand Women's T20 Smash in Bangkok. Nepal finished runner-up at the tournament losing to Thailand by 70 runs in the Final.[5]
