About Odisha Pro T20 League 2026

The Odisha Pro T20 League (OPTL) is the official franchise-based T20 tournament of the state, organised by the Odisha Cricket Association (OCA) in partnership with Arivaa Sports. The league was launched in September 2025 with the clear goal of building a professional pathway for cricketers from every district of Odisha. The inaugural season was inaugurated by Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi at Barabati Stadium and ran from September 17 to 26, 2025, with 18 matches played across 10 days. Cuttack Panthers won the maiden title, beating Sambalpur Warriors by 5 runs (DLS method) in a rain-affected final.

Season 2 in 2026 brings a few notable updates. The tournament window has shifted slightly to September 20 to September 29, 2026, and the defending champions are entering the season with a refreshed identity, competing as the Kataka Panthers under the leadership of former IPL player Biplab Samantaray. The Rourkela franchise also comes in with a new identity as the Rourkela Superstars. The 2026 edition will feature 17 matches, with every league fixture practically working like a knockout given the tight qualification race. According to OCA, national selectors and IPL scouts are expected to follow the games closely this year, giving players a bigger platform. This is an independent fan site tracking that story — it isn’t run by OCA or the league.

Kataka Panthers

Cuttack, Odisha
Captain

Biplab Samantaray

Kataka Panthers are the defending champions of the league and represent the ancient city of Cuttack, one of Odisha’s most historic cricketing hubs. The squad blends senior campaigners with young talent and enters the 2026 season as favourites under new leadership.

Bhubaneswar Tigers

Bhubaneswar, Odisha
Captain

Suryakant Pradhan

Bhubaneswar Tigers carry the flag of the state capital and are known for their aggressive style of play. The Tigers opened the inaugural season and remain one of the most followed franchises in the league.

Sambalpur Warriors

Sambalpur, Odisha
Captain

Aashirwad Swain

Sambalpur Warriors were the runners-up in Season 1, going all the way to the final before losing narrowly to Cuttack. Their fighting brand of cricket makes them a strong contender in 2026.

Puri Titans

Puti, Odisha
Captain

Sandeep Pattnaik

Puri Titans represent the coastal temple town and are built around a mix of opening firepower and a settled bowling attack. They will be looking for a stronger campaign this season.

Rourkela Superstars

Rourkela, Odisha
Captain

Subhranshu Senapati

Rourkela Superstars, previously known as Rourkela Steelers, bring in players from the industrial belt of western Odisha. Led by one of the state’s most seasoned batters, they are known for a batting-heavy approach.

Keonjhar Miners

Keonjhar, Odisha
Captain

Govinda Poddar

Keonjhar Miners represent the mineral-rich northern district and give a platform to plenty of young cricketers from smaller towns. They rely on grit and all-round balance to punch above their weight.

Captain names are based on public announcements. We’ll update this page as OCA confirms the 2026 line-ups.

06 / Magazine watchlist

Players To Watch in Odisha Pro T20 League

Several cricketers are expected to make a big impact in the 2026 season. Biplab Samantaray brings IPL-level experience and is likely to be one of the standout performers with the bat. Piyush Mantri and Sourav Gouda from the Kataka Panthers set-up are talented youngsters who impressed in Season 1. Rakesh Pattnaik and Sumit Sharma from the Rourkela Superstars side have shown power-hitting ability that suits T20 cricket. Sibun Nanda and Subham Satrujit are quality all-rounders capable of turning games on their own.

Among the pace attack, Rajesh Dhupar, Debabrata Pradhan and Sohail Khan are names to keep an eye on. In the spin department, Harshit Rathod and Raj Yadav offer variety and control in the middle overs. With IPL scouts watching every match, these players have a real chance of catching the eye of bigger franchises.
