On 29 June 2022, Cricket Australia announced the fixtures for the tournament; a total of 43 matches will be played, with each of the seven teams playing each other team twice.[1] Tasmania was the defending champion.[2]
Tasmania also eventually won the tournament, and was awarded its second WNCL title, beating South Australia in the rain-affected final,[3] which has been "... dubbed the most incredible domestic cricket match ever played on Australian soil."[4]
During the final's very last over, described by news.com.au as "[o]ne of the craziest finishes in cricket", Tasmania took five wickets for two runs, to win the match and the championship by just one run (DLS method).[3]
