The 2024–25 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy was a first-class domestic cricket competition held in Pakistan during the 2024–25 season from 26 October to 6 January 2025. It was the 67th edition of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, contested by 18 teams representing regional cricket associations.[1]

Format

[edit]

For the 2024–25 competition the number of teams was increased from eight to 18, in three pools of six teams each. Three of the teams – Larkana Region, Azad Jammu & Kashmir Region and Dera Murad Jamali Region – were competing at the first-class level for the first time.[2]

After a 15-match round-robin in each pool, the top team from each pool took part in a three-team, three-match series. The top two teams from this series then played off in the final, beginning on 2 January.[2][3]
