PLAYOFF RULES
First of all FCA would like to thank all the Teams for being very cooperative and adjusting for bring yet another exciting tournament closer to its finish. Let’s get down to business, this season we are having 21 teams. This is one of the highest number is the recent years and FCA is proud to accommodate this. So based on our discussion we are changing the playoff format this season. The reason why we are changing the format for this season only is to accommodate more teams and give more teams a fighting chance to make it to the next round and also to have a proper wild card round not just based on points and run rate but based on an actual match.
Qualification criteria:
Top three teams from each group will qualify for the playoffs based on points and then NRR (up to 5 digits).
Top two teams from each group will be seeded 1 thru 6 based on points and NRR.
Wild Card Round:
One team from the combination of all groups will be selected for 10th position.
7th seeded team will play a wild card match against 10th seeded team and 8th seeded team will play a wild card match against 9th seeded team.
Winner of the two matches will be placed 7th and 8th with the remaining 6 teams and will play quarter finals.
The rest of the format remains the same where in quarters, semis and finals will be played as usual.
Please reach out to FCA in case of any questions, concerns or clarity.
