The 2000 Norwich Union National League season was a 45 over English county cricket competition; colloquially known as the Sunday League, it featured many mid-week floodlit matches. It was contested through two divisions: Division One and Division Two. Each team played all the others in their division both home and away. The top three teams from Division Two were promoted to the first division for the 2001 season, while the bottom three sides from Division One were relegated. All eighteen counties retained the nicknames from the previous season.[3][4]
Gloucestershire Gladiators won the League for the first time. Worcestershire Royals, Lancashire Lightning and Sussex Sharks were relegated from Division One, while Surrey Lions, Nottinghamshire Outlaws and Warwickshire Bears were promoted from Division Two.
