The 2024 Shpageeza Cricket League (also known as for sponsorship reasons as 2024 X-Bull Energy Shpageeza Cricket League) was the 9th edition of the Shpageeza Cricket League,[1] a professional Twenty20 cricket (T20) league established by the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) in 2013, and the fifth edition to have official T20 status. It was originally scheduled to run from 10 to 25 September 2024, with the number of teams decreasing from eight to five.[1] However, no tournament took place in 2023, with the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) announcing that the tournament would be played in August 2024. The Speenghar Tigers are the defending champions.
