The 2018 season was Western Storm's third season, in which they competed in the Women's Cricket Super League, a Twenty20 competition. The side finished second in the initial group stage, therefore progressing to the semi-final.[1] However, they lost in the semi-final to the eventual winners Surrey Stars by 9 runs.[2]

The side was captained by Heather Knight and coached by Trevor Griffin. They played three home matches at the County Ground, Taunton and one apiece at the County Ground, Bristol and College Ground, Cheltenham.[3]
