Accordingly, both the 50-over competition and the T20 Tournament of the first-ever Women’s National Super League will be held back to back during the month of February 2024.
The 50-over tournament, which commenced today (Feb 06), is a major elevation for women’s cricket in the country, as they get to compete in the country’s Elite Domestic Competition, SLC said.
