The 2022–23 Sheffield Shield season was the 121st of the Australian inter-state domestic first-class cricket competition. In June 2022 Cricket Australia revealed the return of the traditional home and away format after two seasons disrupted by the pandemic. The tournament started in October 2022 with Western Australia the defending champions. Finishing the regular season atop the standings, Western Australia hosted the final at the WACA Ground in Perth, defeating Victoria by nine wickets on 26 March 2023 to retain the title.
