Had it not been for the COVID-19 pandemic, the second week of January would have been witnessing the business end of the Ranji Trophy after the possible culmination of at least a couple of other domestic tournaments in India.
A significant delay due to the global pandemic means that domestic cricket will begin in the country in the form of Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy’s 12th season which will be played among 38 teams across seven venues namely Mumbai, Vadodara, Indore, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Chennai and Ahmedabad.
Divided into six groups (five elite groups comprising of six teams each and one plate group comprising of eight), each group has been allotted a city where they are following strict bio-bubble protocols. Ahmedabad, meanwhile, will host the knockout stage of the tournament starting from January 26.
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021 Live Telecast in India
Star Network will broadcast the live streaming of the imminent season of Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in India. Much like all other domestic cricket in India, the premier T20 competition comprising of all local players will also be available on Star’s channels with Star Sports 2 and Star Sports 2 HD being the most likeliest of options.
It is worth mentioning that the exact channel might vary according to Star Network’s daily schedule with respect to other sporting events. Had it been an international fixture or the Indian Premier League, commentary would’ve have been easily available in multiple languages. However, the same can’t be confirmed for the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy for now.
In a tournament comprising of 150+ matches to be played within three weeks, it is understandable that only a limited number of matches will be televised.
Online users can stream the matches on Star’s streaming application named Disney+Hotstar. It is worth mentioning that the match won’t be available on any other streaming platform in India.
Date – 10/01/2021 (Sunday) – 31/01/2021 (Friday).
Match start Time – 12:00 PM (IST) and 07:00 PM (IST).
TV Channel – Star Sports 2 and Star Sports 2 HD (subject to change).
Online platform – Disney+Hotstar.
