Whether you are supporting the IPL giants or the PSL speedsters, this is your dashboard for the tournament.

Points Table:

The 2026 edition of the World Club Championship League is expected to follow a two group format. This ensures that teams play a round robin stage before the top performers advance to the semifinals.

Below is the projected structure of the standings featuring the likely contenders for the 2026 title. As soon as the match results pour in, this table will be updated in real time.

How the Points System Works:

Understanding the math behind the table is crucial for following the tournament. The World Club Championship League uses a standard ICC style points system to ensure fairness and clarity.

Here is the breakdown of how points are awarded after every match:

  • Win: The winning team is awarded 2 Points.
  • Loss: The losing team receives 0 Points.
  • Tie (Super Over): If a match is tied, it goes to a Super Over. The winner of the Super Over gets 2 Points, and the loser gets 0 Points.
  • No Result / Abandoned: If a match is washed out due to rain or cannot be completed for any reason, the points are split. Each team gets 1 Point.

Qualification Scenarios: The Road to the Semifinals

The format of the World Club Championship League is unforgiving. With only 8 to 10 teams participating, the margin for error is tiny.

The Top Two Rule

Only the top two teams from Group A and Group B will advance to the knockout stage.

  • A1 vs B2: The winner of Group A plays the runner up of Group B.
  • B1 vs A2: The winner of Group B plays the runner up of Group A.

This cross over format keeps the groups interesting until the very last ball of the league stage. A team finishing second still has a shot at the trophy, but they will likely face a tougher opponent in the semifinals.

Elimination

Teams finishing 3rd and 4th in their groups are eliminated immediately. There are no “Plate Finals” or consolation games. If you do not make the top two, your global journey ends there.

Tie Breaker:

What happens if two teams, say Chennai Super Kings and Oval Invincibles, finish with the exact same points and the exact same Net Run Rate? While rare, the technical committee has a set of tie breaker rules in place to determine the ranking order.

  1. Number of Wins: The team with more total wins is ranked higher.
  2. Head to Head: If two teams are equal on points and wins, the team that won the match between the two sides is ranked higher.
  3. Net Run Rate: If still equal, NRR is the deciding factor.
  4. Seedings: In the highly unlikely event that everything is identical, the team that entered the tournament with a higher seeding (based on their league’s global standing) may be ranked higher.

Conclusion:

The World Club Championship League Points Table is more than just a grid of numbers. It is a story of resilience, strategy, and skill. It shows us who can handle the pressure of the global stage.
