How the Ayodhya Premier League 2026 Points System Works
The Ayodhya Premier League (APL) 2026 uses a clear and simple points system to decide team standings during the league stage:
- Win: 2 points
- No Result / Abandoned Match: 1 point
- Loss: 0 points
When two or more teams have the same total points, the Net Run Rate (NRR) decides their position on the table.
- NRR Formula: (Total runs scored ÷ overs faced) – (Total runs conceded ÷ overs bowled)
- A higher NRR means the team has performed better overall, scoring faster and defending stronger.
At the end of the group stage, the top teams based on points and NRR qualify for the semi-finals and final.
