The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has officially unveiled the complete fixtures for Season 4 of the T20 Mumbai League 2026 along with the inaugural edition of the T20 Mumbai Women’s League. The much-anticipated tournament will be held at the iconic Wankhede Stadium from June 1 to June 13, promising nearly two weeks of high-intensity cricket featuring some of the biggest names in Indian cricket.
A total of 30 matches will be played during the tournament, with fans set to witness a blend of international stars, IPL performers, WPL cricketers and Mumbai’s rising young talents. The league has steadily grown into one of India’s premier domestic franchise T20 competitions since its launch in 2018, and the 2026 edition is expected to take the excitement several notches higher.
The tournament will kick off with a double-header on June 1. In the afternoon fixture, Bandra Blasters, led by explosive India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, will face Eagle Thane Strikers featuring India all-rounder Shardul Thakur. The evening clash is expected to draw major attention as Tushar Deshpande’s Mumbai South Central Maratha Royals take on Sarfaraz Khan’s Aakash Tigers Mumbai Western Suburbs.
Several marquee Indian stars are expected to light up the tournament, including Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Ajinkya Rahane and Shivam Dube.
Alongside the established names, the league will also provide a platform for emerging talents such as Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Musheer Khan, Ayush Mhatre, Suryansh Shedge and Abhigyan Kundu.
The men’s competition will feature eight teams, with each side playing five league-stage matches. The top four teams at the end of the group stage will qualify for the semi-finals scheduled on June 11, while the grand final will be played on June 13 under lights at the Wankhede Stadium. League-stage matches will be played in two slots — afternoon games beginning at 2 PM IST and evening fixtures starting at 7 PM IST.
Over the years, the T20 Mumbai League has earned a reputation for producing exciting young cricketers who later progressed to the IPL, domestic circuit and even the Indian national team. With the addition of the women’s competition this year, the MCA aims to further strengthen Mumbai’s cricketing ecosystem and provide a bigger stage for upcoming talent. The 2026 season is expected to deliver thrilling rivalries, packed crowds and a celebration of Mumbai’s rich cricketing culture.
