The 13 teams are divided into four groups: Pool A with four teams, Pool B, C and D with three each. Each group plays a single Round-robin tournament and the top team from each group advances to the semi-finals. The winners of the semi-finals play the final.

  • Total points

  • Net run rate

    The prize money was increased from the previous year, with the winners receiving almost twice that of the previous year.
