The 2009 Champions League Twenty20 was the first edition of the Champions League Twenty20, an international club cricket tournament. It was held in India between 8 October and 23 October 2009 and featured 12 domestic teams from Australia, England, India, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka and West Indies.[1] The New South Wales were the winners of the tournament, defeating Trinidad & Tobago in the grand final.

Contents

Format

The tournament consisted of the 12 top domestic teams from seven countries as determined by the domestic Twenty20 tournament of those countries. The tournament consists of 23 matches, and is divided into three stages: the group, league and knockout stages. If a match ends in a tie, a Super Over will be played to determine the winner.

The group stage has the teams divided into four equal groups, with each playing a round-robin tournament. The top two teams of each group advances to the league stage. The league stage merges the remaining teams from Groups A and B to form League A, and the remaining teams from Groups C and D to form League B. Another round-robin tournament is played in each league. Teams that have faced each other from the group stage will not play each other again, but have the result from their first meeting carried forward. The top two teams from each league advance to the knockout stage. The knockout stage consists of two semi-finals, with the top team of one league facing the second from the other. The winners of the semi-finals play the grand final to determine the winner of the competition.

Points awarded in group and league stages:

Prize money

The total prize money for the competition was US$6 million. In addition to the prize money, each team receives a participation fee of $500,000.[2] The prize money was distributed as follows:[3][4]

Teams

There are players who are a part of more than one qualified team. In that case, a player can play for his "home" team (the team from the country he is eligible to represent in international cricket) without consequence. If he plays for any other team, that team must pay the home team US$200,000 as compensation. Only Dirk Nannes was named in more than one preliminary squad — that of the Delhi Daredevils and his "home" team the Victorian Bushrangers. Delhi paid Victoria US$200,000 to retain Nannes.[5]

Reception

The 2009 Champions League Twenty20 was low in popularity due to the lack of team recognition outside the three teams from the host nation India and also due to failure of IPL teams. The tournament drew low television ratings and attendances for matches not involving the Indian teams.[6]
