Ranji Trophy Winners List (1934-2025)
The Ranji Trophy, India’s premier domestic cricket tournament, has been the cornerstone of the nation’s cricketing legacy since its inception in 1934. Named in honour of Maharaja Ranjitsinhji, the first Indian to play international cricket, the tournament has served as a stepping stone for players aspiring to join the national team.
The inaugural match took place on November 4, 1934, at the Chepauk Ground, where Madras triumphed over Mysore by an innings and 23 runs. Originally played in a knockout format, the tournament later evolved into a league-and-knockout structure to accommodate the growing number of participating teams. Today, 38 teams, including state sides and institutions like Services and Railways, vie for the coveted title. Notably, the tournament’s illustrious history witnessed an unprecedented pause during the 2020–21 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
