The Australia women's cricket team toured Ireland in July 2023 to play three One Day International (ODI) matches.[1][2] The series formed a part of the 2022–2025 ICC Women's Championship.[3] In March 2023, Cricket Ireland (CI) confirmed the dates of this tour.[4] All matches of the series were played at Castle Avenue in Dublin.[5] Australia had last toured Ireland for an ODI series in 2005.[6]

The first match of the series was washed out.[7] Australia won the next two ODIs to win the series 2–0.[8]
