How the Tillo T20 Cup 2026 Points System Works
The points system in the Tillo T20 Cup 2026 is simple and rewards teams that win consistently across the league stage. Here is how points are given out for each result.
Win: 2 points
A team that wins a match earns 2 points. Winning consistently through the league stage is the only reliable way to secure a top spot and qualify for the semi-finals.
No Result or Abandoned Match: 1 point each
If a match is called off due to rain or any other reason without a result, both teams get 1 point each. This rule protects teams from losing out due to conditions outside their control.
Loss: 0 points
A team that loses a match earns zero points. There is no consolation point for a close loss, which makes every match a must-win situation for teams looking to stay in the hunt.
What is Net Run Rate and Why Does It Matter
Net Run Rate, or NRR, is the number that separates teams when two or more sides finish the league stage with the same number of points. It plays a big role in deciding who qualifies.
NRR is calculated by taking the average runs scored per over across all matches and subtracting the average runs conceded per over. A higher positive NRR means a team has performed better overall with both bat and ball.
When two teams are level on points at the end of the league stage, the team with the better NRR takes the higher spot in the table. This is why winning by bigger margins matters, and losing by smaller margins matters just as much.
