Champions Trophy 2017

CT2017 Format:
There are 17 teams participating in the tournament, which have been put into 4 groups, with one group containing 5 teams. The groups are as follows:

Group A: Sultans / Weekenders / SD Kings / Beamers 
Group B: Wolverines / Bolts / Vintage / Bouncers
Group C: Falcons / Spartans / Strikers / Phoenix
Group D: Tigers / Masters / Mavericks / Jaguars / Lions

Each innings consists of 20 overs. Teams have 100 minutes to bowl 20 overs including a 5 minute break at the end of 10 overs. There is a 10 minute in-between innings. Umpires will deduct overs in case teams are unable to bowl their overs in the allotted time (For how to deduct: https://www.cricclubs.com/SDCricket/document.doc?documentId=17&clubId=95).

Each win is worth 10 points. In the event of a tie or abandoned match due to rain, 5 points will be awarded to each team. There will be 3 league games (4 for Masters). The top two teams from each group after the league phase, as decided by points and NRR, will qualify for the quarter finals. In the case of group D, the number of losses will be considered prior to NRR to determine the rankings.

The quarter/semi finals will be structured as follows:

Quarter finals: (A1) vs. (B2), (A2) vs. (B1), (C1) vs. (D2), (C2) vs. (D1)
Semi finals: (A1 or B2) vs. (C1 or D2), (A2 or B1) vs. (C2 or D1)

Since Champions Trophy is a small tournament, we will follow roster requirements from last Champions Trophy, which are different than regular season requirements. Please pay attention to following rules for CT2017:
  • Roster will be frozen after first weekend games. Captains/Team Administrators must ensure that they have their roster finalized by then.

  • Players who have not played in CT2017, can be added during the group phase after getting approval from EC. Teams must send an email to the EC and EC will add the player.
