Jersey and Guernsey had played an Inter-Insular cricket match annually since 1950, generally as 50-over contests. ^[3] A Twenty20 series was played for the first time in 2018. ^[4] The T20 series has had official T20I status since the 2019 T20 Inter-Insular Cup, following the International Cricket Council's decision to grant T20I status to all matches played between Associate Members after 1 January 2019. ^[5]

Guernsey's preparations included a win against a Marylebone Cricket Club team in Saint Peter Port before travelling to Jersey. ^[6]

After the first two matches (which were both rain-affected and determined using the DLS method) were split, Jersey won the decider by three runs to retain the trophy 2–1. ^{[7] [8] [9]}

A women's match was played on 5 July at the King George V Sports Ground in Castel. Jersey won the rain-shortened contest by 89 runs under the DLS method. ^[10]

On 9 August 2025, the men's teams also contested the 71st annual Inter-Insular Trophy 50-over match at King George V Sports Ground. Jersey won by eight wickets to retain the trophy. ^{[11] [12]}
