As England transitions into its revamped professional county structure, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has announced fixtures for the 2025 Women’s One Day Cup, following last week’s reveal of the Women’s Blast schedule.
The League 1 fixtures will feature eight fully professional counties — Durham, Essex, Hampshire (The Blaze), Lancashire, Nottinghamshire, Somerset, Surrey, and Warwickshire (Bears). Alongside this, a League 2 division will comprise 10 Tier 2 and Tier 3 counties.
In League 1, teams will follow a double round-robin format, with each team contesting 14 group-stage matches (home and away). The top four sides will progress to the semi-finals, setting the stage for a high-stakes conclusion to the tournament.
Meanwhile, League 2 will see its 10 teams compete in a single round-robin format, with each side playing nine group-stage matches. The top four teams from League 2 will then advance to the semi-final, followed by the League 2 Final on September 14.
League 2 teams: Derbyshire Falcons, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, Kent, Leicestershire Foxes, Middlesex, Northamptonshire Steelbacks, Sussex Sharks, Worcestershire Rapids, and Yorkshire.
