The 2016 cricket season was the 117th in which the County Championship has been an official competition. The season began in March with a round of university matches, and continued until the conclusion of a round of County Championship matches in late September. Three major men's domestic competitions were contested: the 2016 County Championship, the 2016 Royal London One-Day Cup and the 2016 NatWest t20 Blast. Women's domestic cricket saw the launch of the Women's Cricket Super League, a new franchise competition, and the contesting of the Women's County Championship and Women's Twenty20 Cup.
During the season, two men's Test teams toured England. Sri Lanka competed early in the summer, with Pakistan also touring later in the year.[1] Pakistan Women also toured, playing England in three WODIs and three WT20Is.[2]
