Each of the six state teams play in a round-robin series of home and away 4-day matches against every other team. Teams are awarded points based on the results of the match, and after each pair of teams have played each other twice, the two highest ranked teams play a 5-day final.

History
In 1891-92 the Earl of Sheffield was in Australia as the promoter of the English team led by W. G. Grace. The tour included three Tests played in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide. Henry North Holroyd, 3rd Earl of Sheffield (born January 18, 1832 in Marylebone, London - died April 21, 1909 in Beaulieu, France), also known as Viscount Pevensey before his succession to the title, was an English cricketer. ...
William Gilbert WG Grace (July 18, 1848 – October 23, 1915) was an English cricketer who, by his extraordinary skills, made cricket perhaps the first modern spectator sport, and who developed most of the techniques of modern batting. ...

Although the competition had been running with losses of several million dollars per annum, cricket traditionalists protested strongly, arguing against the encroaching wave of commercialism damaging the competition that had been running for over 100 years. Many cricket lovers still refer to the competition as the "Shield" either as force of habit, or as a subtle protest.
The sponsorship increased total annual prize money to A$220,000, with the winners receiving A$75,000 and the runners up A$45,000.

Points system A number of different systems have been used over the years. Currently, points are awarded for each match during the home and away season, with the top two teams playing in the final. The team with the most points hosts the final on their home ground and only needs to draw that match to win the title. | Category | What it means | Points | | First innings points | The team that scores the most runs in their first innings, whether they bat first or second | 2 - retained even if beaten outright | | Outright win | The team that wins the match, whether they win, lose or tie the first innings | 6 - maximum points | | Tied match | If both teams finish on equal runs after completing two innings each | 3 - irrespective of first innings result | | Tied innings | Equal runs on first innings and no outright result | 1 each | | Outright loss | Team who loses the match after a tie in the first innings | 1 | | First innings loss | Team with the least amount of runs in the first innings | 0 | | Outright loss | Team who loses the match after losing in the first innings | 0 | | Abandoned/Draw | Abandoned or drawn match with no first innings result | 0 |
Winners table Prior to the introduction of a Final in 1982/83, the team with most points after the home and away rounds was declared the winner. | Season | Winner | Runner-up | | 1892-93 | Victoria | | 1893-94 | South Australia | | 1894-95 | Victoria | | 1895-96 | New South Wales | | 1896-97 | New South Wales | | 1897-98 | Victoria | | 1898-99 | Victoria | | 1899-00 | New South Wales | | 1900-01 | Victoria | | 1901-02 | New South Wales | | 1902-03 | New South Wales | | 1903-04 | New South Wales | | 1904-05 | New South Wales | | 1905-06 | New South Wales | | 1906-07 | New South Wales | | 1907-08 | Victoria | | 1908-09 | New South Wales | | 1909-10 | South Australia | | 1910-11 | New South Wales | | 1911-12 | New South Wales | | 1912-13 | South Australia | | 1913-14 | New South Wales | | 1914-15 | Victoria | | 1915-19 | (not contested due to World War I) | | 1919-20 | New South Wales | | 1920-21 | New South Wales | | 1921-22 | Victoria | | 1922-23 | New South Wales | | 1923-24 | Victoria | | 1924-25 | Victoria | | 1925-26 | New South Wales | | 1926-27 | South Australia | | 1927-28 | Victoria | | 1928-29 | New South Wales | | 1929-30 | Victoria | | 1930-31 | Victoria | | 1931-32 | New South Wales | | 1932-33 | New South Wales | | 1933-34 | Victoria | | 1934-35 | Victoria | | 1935-36 | South Australia | | 1936-37 | Victoria | | 1937-38 | New South Wales | | 1938-39 | South Australia | | 1939-40 | New South Wales | | 1940-46 | (not contested due to World War II) | | 1946-47 | Victoria | | 1947-48 | Western Australia | | 1948-49 | New South Wales | | 1949-50 | New South Wales | | 1950-51 | Victoria | | 1951-52 | New South Wales | | 1952-53 | South Australia | | 1953-54 | New South Wales | | 1954-55 | New South Wales | | 1955-56 | New South Wales | | 1956-57 | New South Wales | | 1957-58 | New South Wales | | 1958-59 | New South Wales | | 1959-60 | New South Wales | | 1960-61 | New South Wales | | 1961-62 | New South Wales | | 1962-63 | Victoria | | 1963-64 | South Australia | | 1964-65 | New South Wales | | 1965-66 | New South Wales | | 1966-67 | Victoria | | 1967-68 | Western Australia | | 1968-69 | South Australia | | 1969-70 | Victoria | | 1970-71 | South Australia | | 1971-72 | Western Australia | | 1972-73 | Western Australia | | 1973-74 | Victoria | | 1974-75 | Western Australia | | 1975-76 | South Australia | | 1976-77 | Western Australia | | 1977-78 | Western Australia | | 1978-79 | Victoria | | 1979-80 | Victoria | | 1980-81 | Western Australia | | 1981-82 | South Australia | | 1982-83 | New South Wales | Western Australia | | 1983-84 | Western Australia | Queensland | | 1984-85 | New South Wales | Queensland | | 1985-86 | New South Wales | Queensland | | 1986-87 | Western Australia | Victoria | | 1987-88 | Western Australia | Queensland | | 1988-89 | Western Australia | South Australia | | 1989-90 | New South Wales | Queensland | | 1990-91 | Victoria | New South Wales | | 1991-92 | Western Australia | New South Wales | | 1992-93 | New South Wales | Queensland | | 1993-94 | New South Wales | Tasmania | | 1994-95 | Queensland | South Australia | | 1995-96 | South Australia | Western Australia | | 1996-97 | Queensland | Western Australia | | 1997-98 | Western Australia | Tasmania | | 1998-99 | Western Australia | Queensland | | 1999-00 | Queensland | Victoria | | 2000-01 | Queensland | Victoria | | 2001-02 | Queensland | Tasmania | | 2002-03 | New South Wales | Queensland | | 2003-04 | Victoria | Queensland | | 2004-05 | New South Wales | Queensland | | 2005-06 | Queensland | Victoria | | 2006-07 | Tasmania | New South Wales | “The Great War †redirects here. ...
