The Norway women's cricket team toured Sweden in August 2021 to play a three-match bilateral Twenty20 series, with the last of the matches having official Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status.[1] The matches were played at the Guttsta Wicked Cricket Ground in Kolsva, and the official WT20I match was the first played by Sweden.[2] On the first day of the tour, both teams shared a training day with Sweden's head coach Jonty Rhodes.[3] Sweden won all three games in the series, including a low-scoring 2-wicket victory in their maiden WT20I.[4][5]
