The Railways cricket team is administered by the Railway Sports Promotion Board, a body responsible for promoting sporting activity among employees of the Indian Railways. The team has a long-standing presence in Indian domestic cricket and has historically drawn its players from across the country, often from those employed within the Railways system.
Faiz Ahmed has featured for Railways in domestic cricket recognised by the BCCI. The Railways team participates in the Ranji Trophy, the Vijay Hazare Trophy and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, which together cover the first-class, List A and Twenty20 formats of Indian domestic cricket.
Players who turn out for Railways often combine their cricketing careers with employment in the Indian Railways, and the team has historically served as a route into top-flight Indian domestic cricket for players from regions with fewer established cricketing structures.
