Full schedule

141 scheduled fixtures: 127 league matches and 14 post-league matches (12 Elite Super League matches plus the Elite and Plate finals). Open a date below to view match numbers, groups, teams, venues, cities and IST times.

Elite: 125 fixtures · Plate: 16 fixtures. Times follow BCCI where ESPN or Cricbuzz differs, including the Plate final at 07:30 IST.

The Elite Super League has two four-team groups; each team plays three matches, and the two group winners contest the final. Participants are To be confirmed. BCCI has not published a Super League group for each fixture, so no fixture-level group is inferred.
