The 2017–18 Senior Women's T20 League was the 10th edition of the women's Twenty20 cricket competition in India. It was held from 12 January to 27 January 2018.[1] Railways were the defending champions, who were eliminated at the Elite Group stage. Delhi won the tournament, their first, by topping the Elite Group Super League.
The 27 teams competing in the tournament were divided into the Elite Group and the Plate Group, with the 10 teams in the Elite Group further divided into Groups A and B and the 17 teams in the Plate Group into Groups A, B and C. The tournament operated on a round-robin format, with each team playing every other team in their group once. The top two sides from each Elite Group progressed to the Elite Group Super League, which was a further round-robin group, with the winner of the group being crowned Champions. The bottom side from each Elite Group was relegated to the Plate Group for the following season. Meanwhile, the top two from each Plate Group progressed to a knockout stage, with the two teams that reached the final being promoted for the following season, as well as playing off for the Plate Group title. Matches were played using a Twenty20 format.
The groups worked on a points system with positions with the groups being based on the total points. Points were awarded as follows:[2]
Win: 4 points.
Tie
2 points.
Loss: 0 points.
No Result/Abandoned: 2 points.
If points in the final table are equal, teams are separated by most wins, then head-to-head record, then Net Run Rate.
27 teams participated in the tournament. The teams were divided in 2 tiers, Elite and Plate, with the Elite level divided into Groups A and B and the Plate level divided into Groups A, B and C.
