The league, which began yesterday and will end tomorrow, at the Centre of Excellence for Women’s Cricket, Iyoba College, Benin City, is featuring four teams, Idia Royals, Pathfinders Cricket Club, Smashers Cricket Club, and Adolo Amazons Cricket in a T20 competition.
 
Chairman of Edo State Cricket Association, Uyi Akpata, who also doubles as the president of the Nigeria Cricket Federation (NCF), assured that the Super Four will feature the top-four teams in the region, adding, “all the clubs grew out of the quest to draw a new path for the game’s development, and today, among other things, we are celebrating the rise of women cricket in Nigeria.”
 
He said, “South-South has continually been the powerhouse for the game because of the commitment of the government of states in the region, and passion of cricket enthusiasts to grow the game.”
