One of India’s most popular and domestic T20 cricket championships is the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. At the same time, I inform you that this trophy is organized by BCCI. Not only that it is named after the famous Indian Test cricketer Syed Mushtaq Ali. Basically, it is a Ranji Trophy game. Check Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2022 Start Date, Schedule, and Team List.
However, BCCI introduced this Ranji Trophy in 2006-7. Similarly, it is established as an inter-state t20 championship. Along with this, Rohit Sharma scored the first T20 century as an Indian batsman. Furthermore, the winners and runners-up of each zone qualify for the knockout stages.

When the trophy was first introduced, it was won by Tamil Nadu. And at that time Tamil Nadu was led by the eminent cricketer Dinesh Karthik. It must be admitted that our India is not far behind. Unfortunately, BCCI announced the cancellation of the 2016 championship.
However, after going through a lot of unfulfillment, the championship is not cancelled. But of course, some new rules come into play. Tamil Nadu has become known as the most successful Syed Mostak Ali Trophy team to date.
