On the 26 August 2023, the side played its first T20I, as part of the Women's Nordic Cup, losing to Norway by 9 wickets.[10] Later that year they played a 4 match ECI (T10) series in Malta, losing the series 0 – 4.[11]
The Malta Women's Cricket team travelled to Estonia for a 5 match ECI (T10) series, broadcast on the European Cricket Network, Estonia won the series 4 – 1.[11]
