Where To Watch Ranji Trophy 2021-22 Live on TV? Live Streaming Details, Schedule, Date, Time and Squads

The Ranji Trophy 2021-22 will be available to watch for fans from Friday (February 17). More details below.

The two-year wait is finally over as the Ranji Trophy returns with its 87th edition. India’s premier domestic first-class competition will be played across the country in a tweaked format, made to keep the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic at bay. 

It is this third wave and a sudden rise in positive cases in certain corners of the nation that had threatened to cancel the tournament entirely once again. Called off last year due to the second wave and the logistical hurdles posed by the contagious virus, the tournament had to be suspended and delayed for 15 days from its original due date January 13. 

But as the wave downsized slightly, the BCCI took the opportunity to reorganise the whole 38-team event in a different, compromised version. As per the new design, the first set of 32 teams are divided into eight Elite groups of four teams each, while the remaining find their place in one Plate group.

Ranji Trophy 2021-22 will be played in two parts either side of IPL 2022.

This will allow separate bubbles to be formed at different venues and keep everyone’s health safety intact. But in an adverse effect, the guaranteed number of league stage fixtures will come down to three for all teams, including those in Plate group. 

Top two teams from each Elite Group will make it through to the knock-outs, which will also have the top team from Plate group. This qualifier from the Plate group will have to contest the pre-quarterfinal with the least-ranked Elite group qualifier (depending on performances and points in the league stage) to seal the final spot in the quarterfinals. Winners from there will progress to the semis and the final. 

The groups are lined-up as such with a designated city base where two venues will be used to complete the league games:
