## Tournament structure

As in previous iterations of this competition, eight city-based teams will compete for the men's and women's titles during the month of August 2025, from the 5th to the 31st.
The eight city-based teams will compete over 64 matches in the group stage (32 men's, 32 women's). All of the men's and women's matches will be held on the same day at the same grounds, with one ticket giving access to both contests.
Each team will play four matches at home and four matches away. This includes one match against every other side in the competition and then a bonus match against their nearest regional rivals.
After the league stage is complete, the top three teams will compete in the knockout stage to decide the ultimate champions. The second and third teams will meet in an eliminator at The Oval in London. The winner of the eliminator will then meet the team that finishes top of the league, in the final at Lord's.

## Format

One-hundred-ball cricket is a form of limited overs cricket, played by two teams each playing a single innings made up of 100 balls.Games last approximately two and a half hours.
The format of the game is:
* 100 balls per innings.
* A change of ends after 10 balls.
* Bowlers deliver either five or 10 consecutive balls.
* Each bowler can deliver a maximum of 20 balls per game.
* Each bowling side gets a strategic time-out of up to two and a half minutes.
* A 25-ball powerplay start for each team in which only two fielders are allowed outside the 30-yard circle.
* No-balls are worth two runs and a free hit.
* Slow over-rates are penalised by one fewer fielder being permitted outside the ring for the final over.
* To constitute a match, a minimum of 25 balls has to be bowled to the side batting second, unless a result has been achieved earlier.
* Two points awarded for a win and one point in the event of a tie or no result.
* In the knockout stages, if a match is tied, then a "Super 5" will be played, with the winner being the team which scores the most runs from a further five balls.
