The Women's T20 Challenge is an Indian women's cricket Twenty20 tournament that has been held since 2018. The tournament features three teams, playing a round-robin group followed by a final. In March 2022, BCCI announced that a franchise-based annual T20 tournament for women cricketers will be started from 2023, replacing the Women's T20 Challenge. The tournament will contain six teams and will be referred as the Women's IPL (tournament similar to IPL).
