Until 2014–15, five Indian zonal teams regularly took part in the Duleep Trophy – [[North Zone cricket team|North Zone]], [[South Zone cricket team|South Zone]], [[East Zone cricket team|East Zone]], [[West Zone cricket team|West Zone]] and [[Central Zone cricket team|Central Zone]]. The original format was that the five teams played each other on a [[single-elimination tournament|knock-out]] basis. From the [[1993–94 Indian cricket season|1993–94 season]], the competition converted to a league format.

For the [[2002–03 Indian cricket season|2002–03 season]], the zonal teams were replaced by 5 new teams – Elite A, Elite B, Elite C, Plate A and Plate B. These teams were constructed from the new Elite Group and Plate Group divisions which had been introduced into the Ranji Trophy that season. However, this format lasted for only one season as it was felt that the new teams lacked identity.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/133340.html | title=Duleep Trophy to revert back to old format | publisher=ESPNcricinfo| date=1 September 2003 | access-date=26 August 2007 }}</ref>

From the [[2003–04 Indian cricket season|2003–04 season]] until 2008, the five original zonal teams competed along with a sixth guest team which was a touring foreign team. The first guest team was [[England A cricket team|England A]] in 2003–04.

The first guest team was [[England A cricket team|England A]] in 2003–04. After 2008, the guest team was dropped, with the original five-team knockout tournament being used until the 2014–15 season.


After 2008 the format was replaced by the original 5-team knockout tournament until the 2014–15 season. The Duleep Trophy was not held in 2015-16 but returned to the calendar in 2016–17 with a new format. Three teams chosen by the BCCI selectors took part, designated India Blue, India Green and India Red. The teams played a [[round-robin tournament]], with the top two advancing to the final which was won by India Blue. The competition was held at the start of the season and all games were staged as day-night games with a pink ball used.

The Duleep Trophy, also known as IDFC First Bank Duleep trophy[3] due to sponsorship reasons, is a domestic first-class cricket competition played in India. Named after Kumar Shri Duleepsinhji of Nawanagar (also known as 'Duleep'), the competition was originally contested by teams representing geographical zones of India. Since 2016–17 it has been played by teams chosen by BCCI selectors. South Zone are the current champions.

History[edit]

The competition was started by the Board of Control for Cricket in India in the 1961–62 season. The inaugural tournament was won by West Zone who defeated South Zone in the final by 10 wickets. In the 1962–63 season four of the five teams (all except Central Zone) had their bowling attacks strengthened by a West Indies Test cricketer.[4]

West zone is now the current highest trophy holder with 19 trophies.

Format[edit]

Until 2014–15, five Indian zonal teams regularly took part in the Duleep Trophy – North Zone, South Zone, East Zone, West Zone and Central Zone. The original format was that the five teams played each other on a knock-out basis. From the 1993–94 season, the competition converted to a league format.

For the 2002–03 season, the zonal teams were replaced by five new teams – Elite A, Elite B, Elite C, Plate A and Plate B. These teams were constructed from the new Elite Group and Plate Group divisions which had been introduced into the Ranji Trophy that season; however, this format lasted for only one season, as it was felt that the new teams lacked identity.[5]

From the 2003–04 season until 2008, the five original zonal teams competed along with a sixth guest team which was a touring foreign team. The first guest team was England A in 2003–04. After 2008, the guest team was dropped, with the original five-team knockout tournament being used until the 2014–15 season.

The Duleep Trophy was not held in 2015-16 but returned to the calendar in 2016–17 with a new format: three teams chosen by the BCCI selectors took part, designated India Blue, India Green and India Red. The teams played a round-robin tournament, with the top two advancing to the final which was won by India Blue. The competition was held at the start of the season and all games were staged as day-night games with a pink ball used.

The Zonal format returned in 2022-23 with the original five zonal teams being joined by a new North East Zone cricket team.

Composition of teams[edit]

Each zonal team is a composite team of cricketers who play for the Ranji Trophy state/city teams situated in that region of India. The teams which compose each zone are as follows:
