2025 Lanka Premier League Postponed To Prioritise Venue Readiness For Men’s T20 World Cup
Premadasa International Cricket Stadium: Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has announced on Wednesday that the 2025 edition of the Lanka Premier League (LPL) will not be held this year as originally scheduled. The decision comes in light of preparations for the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, which Sri Lanka will co-host with India in February–March next year.
The sixth edition of LPL was to get underway on December 1 and comprise 24 matches, including 20 league games and four knockout fixtures to be played in Colombo, Kandy, and Dambulla. Five franchises would compete against each other twice during the league phase, following which the top four teams would move to the playoffs.
The Qualifier 1 would be contested by the top two sides, with the winner entering the final. Teams placed third and fourth would face off in the Eliminator, and the winner of that clash would face the loser of Qualifier 1 in Qualifier 2, from where the second finalist would come.
