Lanka Premier League (LPL) 2025 will take place during the November-December window, aligning with the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2026, co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) announced on Friday that the sixth edition of the domestic T20 tournament will be held from November 27 to December 23.

“The idea to conduct the LPL during this time frame is aimed at aligning the tournament with the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026,” said Samantha Dodanwela, LPL tournament director, in a statement.

The island nation will take up hosting rights alongside India for the 10th edition of the global showpiece.

SLC also revealed that the LPL matches will be played across three venues: RPICS, Colombo, PICS, Pallekele, and RDICS, Dambulla.

Jaffna Kings is the defending champion — it beat Galle Marvels in the 2024 summit clash to lift its fourth title.
