Two tournaments will be played after league stage

According to the new proposed format of Ranji Trophy 2024-25, white ball tournaments, Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy will be played after the five-match league stage. The remaining two Ranji League matches and the knockout stage matches will be held after the limited overs tournament.

This is intended to address the challenges posed by inclement weather in the northern part of the country during the winter months, as well as to allow for a break between matches.

Players will get more time in between matches

During last season's Ranji Trophy, there was a gap of only three days between the two matches, which did not leave enough time for the players to rest and refresh. This year, the gap between matches will be increased to give the players enough time to freshen up and maintain top performance throughout the season.

Domestic season will start with the Duleep Trophy

According to the proposal, the domestic season will start with the Duleep Trophy, which will consist of four teams selected by the national selectors. The Irani Cup will take place after the Duleep Trophy. After which the first phase of Ranji Trophy 2024-25 will be organized.
