The Ranji Trophy 2022–23 is all set to kick off. The regular 38 teams will compete in the 88th Ranji Trophy competition.

The Ranji Trophy will once again be played in its whole, encompassing 135 games from December 13, 2022, to February 20, 2023.
Four groups of eight teams each were chosen from the top 32 teams. After the teams compete in a round-robin league format, two teams from each group advance to the knockout rounds. Following the conclusion of the league games, the final for the Plate Group will feature the remaining eight teams.
These will be followed by the final, two semi-finals (February 8), and four quarter-finals (starting January 31). (February 16). The Ranji knockout rounds will take five days, compared to four days for group matches.
