Points Table (after eleven rounds)

So, since I feel kind of bad for screwing up the NRR to begin with I've decided to let India into the finals system anyway since they were a game clear from the next ranked side & tbqh there's every chance my calculations aren't 100% correct. I will be expanding to a final 7 format. Which operates like this:

Phase 1

Qualifying finals:

#1 New Zealand vs Australia
#2 Australia A vs West Indies

The winners of these matches advance directly to Phase 3, The losers have another chance in Phase 2, when they play at home to the winners of the Elimination round robin.

Elimination round robin:

South Africa vs ROW
ROW vs India
South Africa vs India

The two highest ranked teams at the end of these matches will advance to Phase 2, the 3rd ranked team will be eliminated. There will be no points or NRR carried forward from the previous group stage. The NRR from these matches alone will be used if two or more teams finish on the same amount of points to determine which team advances.


Phase 2

Preliminary Semi-Final 1:

Loser of qualyfying final #1 vs 2nd ranked Elimination round robin qualifier

Preliminary Semi-Final 2:

Loser of qualifying final #2 vs 1st ranked Elimination round robin qualifier

The winners of these matches advance to Phase 3, with the losers being eliminated.


Phase 3

Semi-Final 1:

Winner of qualyfying final #1 vs winner of Preliminary Semi-Final #2

Semi-Final 2:

Winner of qualyfying final #2 vs winner of Preliminary Semi-Final #1

The winners advance to the Grand Final


Grand Final

Semi-Final #1 winner vs Semi-Final #2 winner

Indeed, it's a bit of a confusing finals system, but I think these 7 sides have, for the most part, been a cut above the rest.

Thanks for letting India in Jimmy. Where will my first match be played?

In England, ROW's home base.

And your match against South Africa will be played over there.

[jimmy101]

Trust a certain Brian Charles Lara to triumph over Australia against the odds. And trust Ridley Jacobs to once again be Windies' get out of jail free card.

Competition changes its rules at the last minute to pander to India. Is this an official ICC-sanctioned competition then?
