The Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) will stage the Delhi Premier League in August 2025. This will be the second season of the league after a successful inaugural edition last year.
And the success has meant the league has gotten bigger this year. Two new teams will join the men’s DPL bandwagon this season.
So now a total of eight teams will compete in the T20 league. The tournament will start on August 2 in Delhi.
The curtain raiser will pit last year’s finalists, South Delhi Superstarz and East Delhi Riders, against each other. The other teams are Central Delhi Kings, North Delhi Strikers, Purani Dilli 6, and West Delhi Lions, with New Delhi Tigers and Outer Delhi Warriors being the new joiners.
Each team plays 10 league matches in a round-robin among 8 teams. Then the top four teams at the end of the league stage will head into the playoffs.
The DPL 2025 playoffs will begin on August 29, with the final scheduled for August 31. The final has a provision for a reserve day on September 1.
You can find the complete schedule for the DPL 2025 season below.
