Points System
From the 2010–11 season, the match points will include one point for a first innings lead, and four points for a win; with five points if a team leads at the first innings and subsequently wins.
Previously, points were awarded as follows:
- 4 points for a win
- 2 points for a no-result or a tie
- 0 points for a loss
- 1 bonus point if a team achieves a run rate 1.25 times that of the opposition
- 2 bonus points if a team achieves a run rate twice that of the opposition
The top two teams at the end of the pool matches play-off in the final. The higher-placed team has the home ground advantage.

Famous quotes containing the words points and/or system:
“In writing biography, fact and fiction shouldn’t be mixed. And if they are, the fictional points should be printed in red ink, the facts printed in black ink.”
—Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)
“I have no concern with any economic criticisms of the communist system; I cannot enquire into whether the abolition of private property is expedient or advantageous. But I am able to recognize that the psychological premises on which the system is based are an untenable illusion. In abolishing private property we deprive the human love of aggression of one of its instruments ... but we have in no way altered the differences in power and influence which are misused by aggressiveness.”
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
