The England Cricket Board (ECB) has announced the second season of the Charlotte Edwards T20 Cup for the development of women’s cricket in England and is also known as the English Women’s T20 League 2022.
Charlotte Edwards Cup 2022 (English Women’s T20 League 2022):
The 2022 Charlotte Edwards Cup 2022 is the second edition of the Charlotte Edwards Cup (English Women’s T20 League 2022), an English women’s cricket Twenty20 domestic competition that will take place between May 14 and June 11, 2022. Eight teams will compete in two double round-robin groups, followed by a Finals Day.
The tournament will run concurrently with the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy. The competition is named after Charlotte Edwards, a former England captain.
Teams will be divided into two groups based on their finishes in the 2021 tournament. Teams play each other team in their group twice, once at home and once away, with the two group winners and the best second-place team advancing to Finals Day, which will be held at the County Ground in Northampton. The group winner advances directly to the final, while the other two teams compete in a semi-final.
The teams will be as follows:
- Central Sparks
- Lightning
- Northern Diamonds
- North West Thunder
- South East Stars
- Southern Vipers
- Sunrisers
- Western Storm
A win earns a team total of four points. An additional point will be awarded if the winning team’s run rate is 1.25 or higher than the opposing team’s. In the event of a tie in the standings, the following tiebreakers will be used in the following order: highest net run rate, the team that scored the most points in matches involving the tied parties, superior bowling strike rate, and lot drawing.
