The Men's Super Smash, currently named the Dream11 Super Smash for sponsorship purposes until 2026,[2] is a men's domestic Twenty20 cricket competition in New Zealand.[3] Since the 2018–19 season, the competition runs alongside the Women's Super Smash.

History

The tournament consists of a double round-robin, with the top three teams qualifying for the play-offs.

The competition has been held every year since 2005 and its former names include:

  • New Zealand Twenty20 Competition – 2005–06
  • State Twenty20 – from 2006–07 to 2008–09
  • HRV Cup – from 2009–10 to 2012–13
  • HRV Twenty20 – 2013–14

Since the 2014–15 season, the competition has been known as the Super Smash with many different sponsors exercising their own naming rights:

From 2008–09 to 2013–14 the winner of the competition gained entry to the Champions League Twenty20 tournament later in the same year.
