The competition features six franchise teams, partnered with a variety of county teams and boards and universities, and was envisaged as a means to bridge the gap between amateur domestic cricket and the increasingly professional international game. The WCSL launched in 2016, with each team playing five group stage matches in a round-robin format, followed by a finals day; this was increased to ten group matches in 2018, following the ECB abandoning their initial plans to expand the tournament by also incorporating a 50-over competition. The WCSL is scheduled to end after the 2019 season, with the ECB's new 100-ball format launching in 2020 for city-based franchises incorporating both men's and women's teams. This will leave no top-level domestic women's competition in the Twenty20 format. HistoryThe England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced their plans for the Women's Cricket Super League in June 2015, stating they would invest £3 million over four years. The competition would launch with six teams playing in a Twenty20 format, with the initial intention to add a 50-over competition in 2017.[1] The ECB received 28 applications to host teams in the first stage of bidding,[2] with the process subsequently moving to an interview stage.[3] The six successful bids were announced in January 2016.[4] The ECB hoped that the WCSL would develop as a semi-professional competition, with the intention of bridging the gap between the amateur Women's County Championship and international cricket, for which England players are centrally contracted as professionals.[5] It was decided in advance of the 2017 season that the planned 50-over competition would not after all take place, with the ECB and the franchises preferring to concentrate their resources on developing the existing Twenty20 format.[6] For the 2018 season, the group stage of the competition was doubled in size, with each of the teams now facing each other home and away for a total of ten group matches.[7] Following the ECB's announcement that their 100-ball competition will launch in 2020, featuring new city-based franchises with both men's and women's teams,[8] the WCSL is scheduled to be scrapped following the 2019 season. This will mean there will be no longer be a top-level women's domestic competition in the Twenty20 format.[9] TeamsThe ECB announced the six hosts for the WCSL in January 2016, with hosting rights awarded for four years of the competition, 2016 to 2019 inclusive. The hosts and partners include seven First-class counties, five minor counties and three universities.[10] Team names, along with the fixtures and venues for the 2016 season, were announced in February 2016.[11][12] The allocation of England players to the teams was announced in April 2016,[13] with overseas player allocations being announced later that month.[14] {{Location map+ |England |width=300|float=right|caption=Location of WCSL teams |places={{Location map~ |England |lat=53.456|long=-2.287 |label=Lancashire Thunder |position=left}}{{Location map~ |England |lat=52.767|long=-1.23 |label=Loughborough Lightning |position=right}}{{Location map~ |England |lat=50.924|long=-1.322 |label=Southern Vipers |position=right}}{{Location map~ |England |lat=51.484|long=-0.115 |label=Surrey Stars |position=right}}{{Location map~ |England |lat=51.019|long=-3.101 |label=Western Storm |position=left}}{{Location map~ |England |lat=53.817|long=-1.582 |label=Yorkshire Diamonds |position=right}}}}
Tournament results
FormatMatches are played in a Twenty20 format. The six teams initially play each other once each in a round robin league, from which the top three finishers qualify for the finals day at a neutral venue. The second and third placed teams then meet in the semi-final for the right to face the first placed team in the final. The finals day was staged at the County Cricket Ground, Chelmsford, in 2016 [12][21] and the County Cricket Ground, Hove, in 2017.[22] Media coverageThe 2016 tournament wasn't televised, but seven group matches and the finals day were broadcast live on BBC radio's Test Match Special.[23][24] In 2017, Sky Sports broadcast eight matches live – six group stage matches as part of double-headers with a men's T20 Blast match, followed by both finals day matches.[25] They will broadcast twelve live matches from the expanded 2018 competition.[26] SponsorshipThe ECB announced a two-year title sponsorship agreement for the WCSL with Kia Motors in March 2016, as a result of which the competition is known as the Kia Super League.[27] Notes1. ^{{cite news|last1=Burnton|first1=Simon|title=ECB
