Unlike the previous year, the 2019 edition featured three teams instead of a one-off match, with a new side called Velocity joining the tournament. [2] It was held from 6 to 11 May 2019 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, coinciding with the 2019 IPL playoffs. Supernovas won their second title by defeating Velocity in the final by four wickets. [3]

The season attracted 71 million unique viewers in India and recorded 2.20 billion minutes of total viewership. [4]
