Col. CK Nayudu Trophy 2024-25: Full schedule and match timings
The first round of the Col. CK Nayudu Trophy 2024-25 kicked off on October 13, with the participation of prominent U23 cricketers in India. The tournament is named after India's first Test cricket captain C. K. Nayudu, and its first edition was held in 1973/74.
Until the 2003/04 edition, the tournament was played in a zonal format. Moreover, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) lowered the age limit of players from 25 to 23 from the 2014/15 edition. Then, the 2021/22 season saw the limit increased to 25 again, before being back to 23 again in 2024.
Since 2007, Mumbai have won the most (3) titles, followed by Punjab (2). The last edition saw Karnataka beat Uttar Pradesh via first-innings lead to secure their maiden Col. CK Nayudu Trophy title.
A total of 37 teams are taking part in the 2024/25 edition, which will end on March 1, 2025. Three elite groups contain eight teams each, while one consists of seven teams. The plate group will consist of six teams.
After the completion of league-stage games, the top two teams from all four elite groups will contest the quarter-finals, followed by the semi-finals and a final. Meanwhile, the top two teams in the plate group will play the game to decide the winner.
The top teams in the plate group get promoted to the elite group in the next edition. On the other hand, the bottom two sides of the elite group will be relegated to the plate group. In the last edition, Meghalaya and Nagaland were the top two teams in the plate group and attained qualification for the elite group.
