The 2025 Men's T20I Inter-Insular Series, consisting of three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches, took place at the Grainville Cricket Ground, Saint Saviour, Jersey, in June 2025.[1] This was the sixth men's Twenty20 Inter-Insular series, and the fifth to be played with official T20I status.[citation needed] Jersey were the defending champions, having won the 2024 series 2–1.[2]
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]
