Teams

The 2014 Women's Twenty20 Cup was divided into four divisions: Divisions One, Two and Three with nine teams each and Division Four with 13 teams. Each Division was divided into regional groups of 3 teams apiece, with each team playing each other twice (apart from Division 4B, which had four teams, and each team played each other once). Based on placings in the first round, teams then progressed to tiered divisions in round two (or tiered matches, in Division Four): for example, the winner of Group 1A progressed to Round 2 Group 1A, with the runners-up being placed in Round 2 Group 1B and third place moving to Round 2 Group 1C. The winners of Round 2 Group 1A were crowned champions, and placings further down determined promotion and relegation. The teams were initially divided into groups as follows:
