The IDFC First Bank Duleep Trophy 2024, which opens India's 2024-25 domestic season, is set to begin on September 5, 2024, in Bengaluru, Karnataka, and Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh.

This 61st edition of the Duleep Trophy features a new format, with four 'India' teams instead of the six zone-based teams that competed in the previous editions. India A, B, C, and D have been chosen by national selectors, with all four teams in action from September 5 to 8.

In the opening round, the four-team tournament will see Team A face Team B at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, while Team C will face Team D at the Rural Development Trust Stadium in Anantapur.

Teams will face each other once in a four-day First-Class match as part of the round-robin group stage, with a total of six matches to be played. Each team will play three matches, and the tournament winner will be crowned based on who has the most points. Here is a look at the schedule:
