The 2022–23 CSA Women's Provincial T20 Competition was the 10th edition of South Africa's provincial Twenty20 cricket tournament. The tournament ran from September 2022 to April 2023, with 16 teams competing in three divisions.[1][2][3] Western Province were the defending champions.

Central Gauteng won the competition, topping the Top 6 table.[1]

Competition format

The 16 teams were divided into three divisions: a top division named "Top 6", and two lower divisions, Pools A and B. Teams in Pools A and B played each other team in their group once in a round-robin format, whilst teams in the Top 6 league play each other team in their group twice. Matches were played using a Twenty20 format. The winner of the Top 6 league was crowned the Champions.[3]

The tournament ran concurrently with the 2022–23 CSA Women's Provincial Programme, with matches played either the day before or day after the corresponding encounter between two teams in the one-day tournament. To maintain this link for the following season, promotion and relegation in the Provincial T20 Competition is determined by standings in the Provincial League.[4]

The groups worked on a points system with positions being based on the total points. Points were awarded as follows:[1]

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