The 2019 Women's County One-Day Championship was the 23rd cricket Women's County Championship season. It ran from late April to the beginning of June and saw 32 county teams and teams representing Scotland, Wales and the Netherlands compete in a series of divisions. Kent Women won the County Championship as winners of the top division with Yorkshire finishing runners-up. This is the record eighth Championship for Kent.

The tournament was followed by the 2019 Women's Twenty20 Cup and then by the 2019 Women's Cricket Super League, a professional tournament competed for by franchise teams.

Competition format

[edit]

The championship works on a points system with positions within the divisions being based on the total points. Points were awarded as follows:[2]

Win: 10 points + bonus points.
Tie: 5 points + bonus points.
Loss: Bonus points.
Abandoned: 5 points.
Cancelled: Match not counted to average.
Conceded: -5 points for the side conceding, 18 points for their opponent.

Bonus points are collected for batting and bowling.[2] The bonus points for each match are retained if the match is completed.
