Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2025: Schedule, Teams, Squads, Groups

The T20 format of cricket has completely changed the sport in the last 2 decades. It was all possible due to the beginning of T20 cricket leagues at the forefront. However, in reality, it was all possible due to domestic cricket adapting the format and coming up with a new tournament in order to explore new talent in the respective country.

India has always been at the top when it comes to the T20i format of cricket. From winning the T20 World Cup on multiple occasions to making the Indian Premier League the most cash-rich league in the world. However, one step from the BCCI changed everything for the country in cricket. The Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy started in 2006, which led to the foundation of T20 cricket in India.

It has been 2 decades since then, and Team India has always explored new avenues in T20 cricket. Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy is all set to begin with its 18th season this year, and the first match is scheduled to take place on Wednesday.

The tournament will begin on 26th November, and the final fixture is scheduled to take place on 18th December. Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy follows the same format as the Ranji Trophy in India. The teams are segmented into 4 elite groups with eight teams, and one plate group, which will consist of 6 teams.

In the previous edition, Mumbai lifted the trophy for the 2nd time. They defeated Madhya Pradesh in the final match. Their first trophy win came in the 2022-23 season when they defeated Himachal Pradesh. Mumbai also finished at the top of the point table with 5 wins and a single loss with a net run rate of +1.213. Considering their previous performance, Mumbai will have positive odds on the cricket betting apps.

Other than Mumbai, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Gujarat, and Baroda will be the other state teams that have produced results in the past. Tamil Nadu has won the competition thrice, and that gives them an upper hand with strong odds on the cricket betting sites.

In this article, we have compiled all the details regarding the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2025-26.
