The 2019–20 Vijay Hazare Trophy is the 18th season of the Vijay Hazare Trophy, a List A cricket tournament in India.[1] It is being contested by 38 teams, divided into four groups, with nine teams in Group A.[2] The group stage started on 24 September 2019.[3] The top five teams across Group A and Group B progressed to the quarter-finals of the competition.[4]
Seventeen out of the first thirty matches that were scheduled to be played across all four groups were abandoned or finished in a no result. Therefore, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) issued a revised schedule for the rain-affected matches.[5][6] Group A is now scheduled to finish on 16 October 2019, three days later than originally planned.[7]
On 12 October 2019, in the match between Kerala and Goa, Kerala's Sanju Samson scored the fastest double century in List A cricket.[8] It was the highest individual total in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, with an unbeaten 212 runs from 129 balls.[9] It was also the highest total made by a wicket-keeper in a List A cricket match.[10] The partnership between him and Sachin Baby was the highest List A partnership for the third wicket. It was also the fourth-highest List A partnership in the history of the game and highest in India.[11][12] On 16 October 2019, Yashasvi Jaiswal became the youngest player to score a double century in List A cricket.[13]
After the final group matches, Chhattisgarh, Karnataka and Mumbai had all progressed from Group A to the knockout phase of the tournament.[14]
