In 2020, the league was forced to pause for nearly 5 years due to the impact of Covid-19. After nearly 5 years, the tournament is finally set to resume on June 4, 2025.
In 2018 and 2019, T20 Mumbai successfully held two tournaments, with the champion's prize money approximately ₹20,00,000 each year.
The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has announced that the T20 Mumbai Cricket League will resume on June 4, 2025.
The season will last for nine days, with the final scheduled for June 12.
The attending teams will be around 6 to 8, so the competition won't last too long.

with additional matches at Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) Ground, Mumbai University Ground, Dadoji Kondadev Stadium, and Azad Maidan.

Opened in 2008, this international cricket stadium, located at Mumbai University, boasts a capacity of 55,000 and rivals Wankhede Stadium in grandeur. It features the most stylish architectural design.
Dr DY Patil Stadium is a batsman’s paradise, particularly suited for power hitters, fast bowlers, spin bowlers, and all-rounders.
This cricket ground is located near the Mumbai city center, in the Bandra-Kurla Commercial Complex, close to the financial district.
The facilities are modern and well-equipped, with high-quality turf, making it a popular venue for various domestic T20 leagues and training sessions.
Located within the Mumbai University campus, this ground hosts local T20 events (T20 Mumbai) and university cricket leagues.
It is ideal for smaller matches and practice games, with a capacity of around 1,000-2,000 spectators. The pitch conditions are generally more favorable to batsmen.
This venue has standard pitch dimensions, but its shorter boundaries make it ideal for big hitting, offering versatility for various sports.
However, its drainage system isn’t as advanced as those in larger stadiums. It is occasionally used for state-level matches, as well as T20 Mumbai and U-19/U-23 games .
One of Mumbai's most famous cricket training grounds, it features dozens of smaller pitches. Although it's not a professional-level stadium, it is frequently used for local Mumbai cricket matches and T20 qualifiers.
Due to its heavy usage, the pitch condition is not always ideal, with more dust being kicked up, but the conditions are more favorable for spin bowlers.
