T20 Mumbai League pushes dates to accommodate IPL 2025, to now start on June 4

The T20 Mumbai League, which was pushed back by a week to accommodate the IPL fixtures, will now be played from June 4 to 12 across two venues – Wankhede Stadium and DY Patil Stadium.

The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) on Tuesday announced that the tournament will witness four matches every day, two at each venue, during the league stage. While the Wankhede Stadium will host fixtures at 2.30 PM and 7.30 PM, the fixtures at the DY Patil Stadium will begin at 10.30 AM and 5.30 PM respectively.

“The decision to revise the schedule of the T20 Mumbai League 2025 was taken unanimously, following careful deliberation with the MCA apex council and the League’s Governing Council. In alignment with national interests and to avoid any overlap with the IPL, we felt it was important to create a dedicated window that allows fans in Mumbai to enjoy a complete, immersive experience — celebrating their homegrown heroes in a league that returns after six years. We are confident that this edition of the T20 Mumbai League will unearth new stars who will carry forward Mumbai’s rich cricketing legacy,” said Abhay Hadap, secretary of the MCA.
