The 2016–17 Senior Women's T20 League was the 9th edition of the women's Twenty20 cricket competition in India.[1][2] It was held from 2 January to 15 January 2017. Railways won the tournament, their eighth in a row, by topping the Elite Group Super League.[3]
Competition format
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:[4]
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.
