History[edit]
The Departmental T20 Women's Championship was established in 2018, replacing the Women's Cricket Challenge Trophy. Four teams, Higher Education Commission, State Bank of Pakistan, Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited and a PCB XI, competed in a Twenty20 double round-robin group held at the National Stadium, Karachi in May 2018.[1] Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited and PCB XI progressed to the final, which was one by Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited by 46 runs, helped by half-centuries from Nain Abidi and Bismah Maroof.[2]
The following tournament took place in the 2018–19 season at Diamond Club Ground, Islamabad in March and April 2019.[3] Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited and State Bank of Pakistan qualified for the final, which was again won by Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited, with Javeria Khan making a half-century for the victors.[4] The following season, the tournament was replaced by the PCB Triangular Twenty20 Women's Tournament.[5]
