Perhaps for the first time, Hyderabad has won the Buchi Babu Invitation Cup for the second time running. The team beat Punjab, Jharkhand and Madhya Pradesh outright to reach the semis, beat Haryana outright in the semis and won on first innings lead against Tamil Nadu President's XI. Led by Rahul Singh both times, the team was without the services of as many as five star players by the semis excluding Siraj - Tilak Varma, Tanmay Agarwal, Tanay Thyagarajan, CV Milind and Abhirath Reddy - and managed to convincingly win four outright games leading to the final where they beat Tamil Nadu President's XI on first innings lead.
