The New Zealand women's national cricket team toured Australia in February 2009. They played against Australia in one Twenty20 International, which was a double-header with a men's T20I, also between Australia and New Zealand, at the Sydney Cricket Ground.[1] Australia won the match, which was reduced by rain, by 9 wickets.[2] The tour preceded both sides' participation in the 2009 World Cup, which was also held in Australia.[3][4]
