It was contested over four days between the most recent winners of the [[Ranji Trophy]] (India) and [[Quaid-i-Azam Trophy]] (Pakistan).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/sports/cricket/virat-kohli-hits-his-maiden-double-century-in-any-format-and-at-any-level-2930288/|title=Virat Kohli hits maiden double century, in any format and at any level}}</ref> The trophy was named after former pre-partition Indian Test cricketer [[Mohammad Nissar]].
