Teams and venues
The eight teams that competed in the 2024 season returned for the fifth year. They are all franchises, which operated separately from the existing county cricket clubs, with each representing large areas of England and Wales.[4]
Background
Competition Format
As in previous editions, eight city-based teams competed for the men's and women's titles during August 2025, from the 5th to the 31st.[5]
The teams played a total of 64 matches in the group stage (32 men's, 32 women's). All matches were held on the same day at the same grounds, with one ticket granting access to both men's and women's contests.
Each team played four matches at home and four away, including one match against every other side in the competition and a bonus match against their nearest regional rivals.
Knockout Stage
After the league stage, the top three teams progressed to the knockout stage to decide the champions. The second- and third-placed teams faced each other in the eliminator at The Oval in London. The winner of the eliminator then met the league-topping team in the final at Lord's.[6]
