How the leagues work
There are two competitions, 50 overs and T20, each with three leagues from the top down. The Bundesliga is run by the Deutscher Cricket Bund (DCB), the Regionalliga and Verbandsliga by the Westdeutscher Cricket Verband (WDCV).
A 50-over match, 50 overs per side, takes a full day. T20 has 20 overs per side and is over in about three hours.

Tournaments beyond the league
Alongside the DCB and WDCV leagues we play tournaments in shorter formats.
Cologne Champions T10 League
Run by the Köln Cricket League, and we play it every year. Ten overs per side, so a match takes about 90 minutes.
