Indian domestic cricket includes several players who share the name Ankit Sharma, which is a common combination of given name and surname in northern India. The name has been used by cricketers appearing across formats such as the Ranji Trophy, the Vijay Hazare Trophy, and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, which together form the principal domestic competitions in India.
The Indian domestic system is organised by the BCCI and includes:
Players progress through age-group cricket (Under-16, Under-19, Under-23) before earning selection to senior state sides.
First-class cricketers form the talent pool from which Indian selectors draw players for the India A side and, ultimately, the senior national team. Domestic performances are also a key route to franchise contracts in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
