Full Schedule of NCL T20 Announced

The National Cricket League (NCL) T20, known as the country’s most exciting domestic event in the shortest format, is set to begin on September 14, 2025. While the Bangladesh national team will be busy with the Asia Cup during this time, local cricketers will showcase their talent in the NCL T20 battle. On Thursday, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officially announced the complete schedule of the tournament.

This season’s NCL T20 will be staged across Rajshahi, Bogura, and Sylhet. The opening match in Rajshahi will begin at 9:30 AM, where hosts Rajshahi will take on last season’s runners-up Dhaka Metro. On the same day at 1:30 PM in Bogura, defending champions Rangpur will face Sylhet.

The first phase of matches will run from September 14–19 in Rajshahi and Bogura. From September 21, the second phase will be hosted in Sylhet, where the remainder of the competition will take place.

The 32-match tournament, featuring eight divisional teams, will conclude its group stage on September 28. The Eliminator between the third- and fourth-placed teams will be played on September 30 at 12:30 PM, followed by the first Qualifier between the top two teams at 5:00 PM on the same day.

The second Qualifier—between the Eliminator winner and the loser of Qualifier 1—will be held on October 1 at 5:00 PM. After nearly three weeks of action, the grand Final will take place on October 3 at 5:00 PM in Sylhet.
