Tournament Format
Each team was required to name a 14-player squad for the tournament. Matches were played with coloured clothing, white balls, fielding restrictions and innings limited to 50 overs.
The seven teams were split into two qualifying groups. Each played a round-robin with two points awarded for a win and one point for a draw or tie. Teams on equal points would be separated by run rate.
Cross-over semi finals would then be played with the winner from each group playing the runner-up from the other group. The losers played in the Plate Winners Final while the winners contested the Final.
