Initially, on 21 July 2021, Cricket Australia confirmed all the fixtures for the tournament.[3][4] On 8 September 2021, Cricket Australia announced that the previous schedule had been scrapped due to ongoing lockdowns[5] in Sydney and Melbourne and subsequent border restrictions.[6] The fixtures for the first two matches were confirmed, with the full revised schedule to be released later.[7] However, the Round one's second match of the season, between Queensland and Tasmania, was postponed following an increase of COVID-19 cases in the state of Queensland.[8]

On 1 October 2021, Cricket Australia confirmed the fixtures for next three matches.[9] On 20 October 2021, Cricket Australia confirmed the next set of fixtures, following the border openings in Sydney and Melbourne.[10] On 5 November 2021, Cricket Australia confirmed the schedule for three further fixtures,[11] with the venue of the fifth round's first match between South Australia and Queensland that would have been decided based on the location of WBBL|07 season finals.[12] Later, on 21 November 2021, it was confirmed that the match would take place at Karen Rolton Oval,[13] after the WBBL|07 finals venue was confirmed as Adelaide Oval.[14]

On 19 November 2021, the start of the match between New South Wales and Victoria was delayed,[15] after Victoria player Will Sutherland's COVID-19 test result required further analysis.[16] Despite the positive test, Cricket Australia confirmed that the match would start a day later than planned on 20 November 2021.[17]

Western Australia were the first team to reach the final of the competition,[18] with them hosting the final for the first time since the 1997–98 Sheffield Shield season.[19] Victoria finished in second place to join Western Australia in the final.[20] The final ended in a draw, with Western Australia winning the tournament having earned more bonus points in their first 100 overs compared to Victoria.[21][22]
