Utilita Bowl To Host Inaugural Metro Bank One-Day Cup Women’s Final
Utilita Bowl has been at the centre of the transformation in women's professional cricket
Utilita Bowl has been confirmed to host the first-ever Metro Bank One-Day Cup Women’s Final.
The match will take place on Sunday 21 September 2025.
Utilita Bowl has been at the centre of the transformation in women’s professional cricket, hosting consecutive sold out international matches in 2023 and 2024, and welcoming record crowds to watch Southern Brave Women in The Hundred.
The venue has also led the way on the field, creating a fully integrated men’s and women’s professional structure, which has produced seven international players and delivered six domestic trophies.
We are delighted to have been selected to host the inaugural Metro Bank One-Day Cup Women’s Final. Support for our women’s teams has been outstanding in recent years and we are proud of our record moving the sport forwards, on and off the field.
This is the start of an exciting new era for cricket and we look forward to welcoming fans to Utilita Bowl for this landmark event.
