The 2018–19 CSA Women's Provincial League was the 24th edition of South Africa's provincial one-day cricket tournament. It ran from October 2018 to March 2019, with 16 provincial teams taking part. North West beat Western Province in the final to win their second one-day title.[1][2]

Competition format

[edit]

The 16 teams were divided into three divisions: a top division named "Top 6", and two lower divisions, Pools A and B. Teams played each other team in their group once in a round-robin format, with matches played using a one day format with 50 overs per side.

All six teams in the Top 6 group progressed to a further round of groups, joined by the winners of Pools A and B. The eight teams were divided into two groups, playing each other team in their group once. The top four teams from this stage progressed to the semi-finals, whilst the bottom four teams played in a series of placing matches. The top six placed sides in these matches qualified for the next season's Top 6 league.[1]

The tournament ran concurrently with the 2018–19 CSA Women's Provincial T20 Competition, with matches played either the day before or day after the corresponding encounter between two teams in the T20 tournament. To maintain this link for the following season, promotion and relegation in the Provincial T20 Competition was determined by standings in the Provincial League.[3]

The groups worked on a points system with positions being based on the total points. Points were awarded as follows:[4]

Win: 4 points
Tie: 3 points
Loss: 0 points.
Abandoned/No Result: 2 points.
Bonus Point: 1 bonus point available per match.
