Sikkim T20 Cup 2024: Teams, fixtures and everything to know

The Sikkim Cricket Association will organise an eight-team franchise-based T20 tournament

The competition comprises 32 matches, including league stages, two Qualifiers, one Eliminator, and a Final. The Final match is scheduled for March 14th and will be held at the SICA Ground in Rangpo, Sikkim.

The tournament features eight teams: Alpine Sporting Club, Black Eagle SAP, Cricket Association of Tathangchen, Irises Cricket Club, Jorethang Brothers Cricket Club, Royal Daragoan Cricket Club, Royal North Brothers, and Pakyong XI.

Notable players such as Aditya Chettri, MD Arif, and Aznoor Ansari are participating, making the Sikkim T20 Cup a highly competitive event.

The Sikkim T20 Cup offers an excellent platform for local players to exhibit their skills. The Sikkim team did not perform well in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, and the association aims to bolster their squad by providing opportunities for young players to showcase their talent in a franchise-based league.
