The ICC Cricket World Cup Super League is an international One Day International cricket competition that serves as part of the qualification process for the Cricket World Cup. This league features 13 teams, including the 12 Full Member nations of the International Cricket Council and the Netherlands, who qualified by winning the 2015-17 ICC World Cricket League Championship.
In the Indian context, the points table holds significant importance as it determines India\“s position and qualification chances for the upcoming World Cup. The league follows a structured format where each team plays eight series - four at home and four away - against different opponents. Each series consists of three ODIs, making a total of 24 matches per team.
The points system is straightforward: teams earn 10 points for a win, 5 points for a tie/no result/abandoned match, and 0 points for a loss. Teams also receive bonus points based on their performance in each series. The top seven teams, along with hosts India, automatically qualify for the 2023 Cricket World Cup.
Indian cricket fans closely monitor the points table as it reflects the team\“s performance against various international opponents. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) uses this competition to assess team strengths and identify areas for improvement. The points table not only shows current standings but also helps in strategic planning for future matches and series. |
