HOW STANDINGS ARE DECIDED * In the League matches, the winning team gets 2 points and the losing team gets 0 points. In case of a tie, each team will get 1 point (no re-match will be considered in case of a tie). * If two or more teams end up with same number of points after League matches, their position in the table will be decided by the following precedence. This is important and very likely to happen in this tournament. * Team with the BEST run-rate - The run rate of a team will be calculated online from https://captaincalculator.com/sports/cricket/net-run-rate-calculator/ Of course, when a team wins batting second, then the number of overs they batted to get their target will be used for the run-rate calculation. If any team got bowled out inside their allotted overs (15 overs), then the actual scheduled overs (i.e. 15) will be used to calculate their run-rate. * It is very rare or quite impossible for two teams ending up with same run-rate. But under the very rare scenario of two teams ending up with the same run-rate, the team which had lost less number of wickets in the league matches will be placed higher than the team which had lost more wickets. INTERRUPTIONS AND UNEXPECTED STOPS * If the match cannot be played under any un-avoidable conditions such as rain, Ground Unavailability, or interruptions of any form, a NEW match will be played between the same two teams at a later time depending upon the ground availability. * The new match will NOT be continued from the state it was halted no matter what. * ONLY the organizers have the right to declare if a match cannot be continued. * Also, if a team misbehaves on the field such as abuse a player/ umpire or indulge in any activities that may cause unnecessary problems, the organizers have the right to STOP the match at any time and declare the Winner. SOME GAME RULES * Free Hit: A Free Hit is awarded to the batting team if the bowler bowls a no-ball (over stepping, a waist high full toss no ball or over the shoulder no ball). * One Bouncer above the shoulders and below the head is allowed per over. * Above the head bowl will be considered wide. * There is run out on the free hit & the ball will be counted. * Field cannot be changed unless the batsman changed ends. * There are no leg byes or LBW in this tournament. * There is no run out on a LEG BYE. * No Runner will be provided to batsman in any case and can be declared retired hurt in case of injury. * During the first four overs, a maximum of three fielders can be outside the inner circle which is known as POWER PLAY.
