The Mumbai cricket team is a premier first-class cricket team that represents Mumbai in Indian domestic competitions. Governed by the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA), its jurisdiction extends across Mumbai City, Mumbai Suburban, Thane, Palghar, and Navi Mumbai (up to Kharghar). The team's primary home ground is the Wankhede Stadium, which also houses the headquarters of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

Mumbai is historically the most dominant force in Indian cricket, holding a record 42 Ranji Trophy titles, most recently winning the 2023–24 season by defeating Vidarbha. The team also holds 15 Irani Cup titles, having ended a 27-year drought by clinching the 2024–25 Irani Cup in Lucknow.

Known for its resilient "Khadoos" style of play and a legacy as a "batting powerhouse," the team was formerly known as the Bombay cricket team until the city was renamed in 1996. Mumbai has produced the highest number of international cricketers for India, including legends such as Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar, and Rohit Sharma.
