The 2023 Women's East Asia Cup was a Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket tournament that took place in Hangzhou, China, in May 2023.[1] This was the fifth edition of the women's East Asia Cup, and saw China, Hong Kong and Japan play in a double round-robin, with the top two sides advancing to the final.[2] South Korea were unable to compete for the second edition in a row, after they and China had also missed the 2022 tournament.[2] The newly developed Zhejiang University of Technology Cricket Field hosted international cricket for the first time, with this tournament also acting as a test event ahead of the 2022 Asian Games, for which the venue was developed.[3] Hong Kong were the defending champions, having defeated Japan 4–0 in a bilateral series in 2022.[4]

Japan were eliminated after the round-robin stage, with several injuries affecting the team.[5] Hong Kong retained the title by winning a super over following a tied game against China in the final.[6] Alison Siu took five wickets for eight runs in the final Hong Kong and was named player of the match.[7]
