The West Indies women's cricket team played the South Africa women's cricket team in January and February 2022.^[1] The tour consisted of four Women's One Day International (WODI) matches.^[2][3] Originally the tour was scheduled to consist of five WODIs and three Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) matches,^[4][5] but a revised schedule was issued ahead of the 2022 Women's Cricket World Cup.^[6]

In January 2022, South Africa's captain Dane van Niekerk suffered a fractured ankle, ruling her out this series and the 2022 Women's Cricket World Cup.^[7] Lizelle Lee was also ruled out of South Africa's squad due to COVID-19,^[8] with Suné Luus named as the team's captain for the series in Lee's absence.^[9]

The first WODI match ended as a no result, with rain ending South Africa's run chase after 17.4 overs.^[10] Earlier, Deandra Dottin had made her career-best total, with 150 not out before the rain came.^[11] The second match finished in a tie,^[12] with the West Indies winning the Super Over.^[13] In the third match, Laura Wolvaardt scored a century as South Africa won by 96 runs to level the series.^[14] South Africa won the fourth and final match by six wickets to win the series 2–1.^[15] It was South Africa's fifth consecutive WODI series win, starting with a 3–0 win against New Zealand in January 2020.^[16]
