List of Karachi first-class cricket teams

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Karachi cricket teams )

Karachi cricket teams have competed in the Pakistani first-class cricket tournaments the Patron's Trophy and Quaid-e-Azam Trophy from 1953?54 to 2018?19, and from 2023 to 2024. Between 2019-20 and 2022?23, the city of Karachi was represented in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy by the Sindh cricket team .

Teams [ edit ]

Owing to the strength of cricket in Karachi, from the 1956?57 season the Karachi City Cricket Association has usually fielded two, sometimes three, first-class teams. (Lahore has done the same from the 1957?58 season.) The names of the teams have varied. In the 1956?57 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy the teams were Karachi Whites (who lost the final), Karachi Blues (defeated by Karachi Whites in a semi-final) and Karachi Greens. In 2014?15 the two latest team names made their debuts: Karachi Dolphins (in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy Gold League) and Karachi Zebras (in the Silver League).

In 2019, domestic cricket in Pakistan was significantly restructured, with six provincial first-class teams replacing the traditional mix of regional associations and departments, and Karachi being represented by Sindh . [1] In 2023, this structure was abandoned, with Karachi Whites returning to first-class competition, competing in the 2023?24 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy . [2]
