Duleep Trophy 2025 Live Streaming: Where to watch, full squads, venue, tournament format and all you need to know
The 2025-26 Duleep Trophy runs from Aug 28 to Sept 11 in Bengaluru, with a knockout format featuring six zones, led by powerhouses West and South.
The Duleep Trophy 2025 is set to take centre stage during a brief pause in India’s international calendar. With the national team preparing for the Asia Cup and the upcoming Test series against West Indies, the domestic red-ball competition begins on August 28. North Zone face East Zone and Central Zone meet NorthEast Zone in the opening games, while heavyweights West and South Zones, courtesy of their strong records, start directly from the semi-finals. All fixtures will be played at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru.
The upcoming edition of the Duleep Trophy carries added weight as selectors will keep a close watch on players who could break into the national setup ahead of the home series against West Indies and South Africa later this year under Shubman Gill’s captaincy. Performances from the likes of Tilak Varma, Devdutt Padikkal, Ishan Kishan, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Mohammed Shami, Shreyas Iyer, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, and Harsh Dubey, among others, will be under the spotlight.
