The competition kicks off on May 20, 2024, with a double-header featuring Birmingham Bears against Yorkshire Vikings and Derbyshire Falcons taking on Lancashire Lightning at Edgbaston Stadium.
The 18 teams are divided into two groups – North Group and South Group. In the group stage, each team will play the others in their group both home and away, resulting in 14 group stage matches for each county.

The quarter-finals are scheduled for July 15-16, 2024. The winner of North Group 1 will play South Group 4, North 2 will play South 3, and so on.
The semi-finals will take place on July 18, with the final at Edgbaston on July 21.
With world-class players like Moeen Ali, Jos Buttler, Jonny Bairstow, and Saqib Mahmood likely to feature, the tournament promises top-notch T20 action for fans.
Edgbaston, Trent Bridge, Old Trafford, and other legendary English cricket venues will host matches.
