2015–16 Vijay Hazare Trophy

The Vijay Hazare Trophy, also known as the Ranji One Day Trophy, was started in 2002–03 as a limited-overs cricket domestic competition involving state teams from the Ranji Trophy plates. It is named after the famous Indian cricketer Vijay Hazare.

Tamil Nadu have won the trophy 4 times. Jharkhand won the trophy in 2011, beating Gujarat in the finals at Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore. Bengal won it on 2011-12.

Karnataka are the current champions of the trophy in 2013-14, beating Railways in the finals.[1]

Format

The 27 Ranji teams are split into 5 zonal groups as follows:

Zone Teams No. of Teams
Central Madhya Pradesh, Railways, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Vidarbha 5
East Assam, Bengal, Jharkhand, Odisha, Tripura 5
North Delhi, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Services 6
South Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Hyderabad, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu 6
West Baroda, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Mumbai, Saurashtra 5

After playing each team in the group once, the five winners and the best performing runner-up qualify for the quarter final stage directly, while the four other runners-up play in the preliminary quarter finals. The 2 winners of pre-quarter finals join the remaining 6 teams in the quarter final stage.

Tournament history

From the tournament's inaugural edition during the 1993–94 season through to the 2001–02 season, no finals were held, and teams consequently played only within their zones, with no overall winner named.
