Tournament format
The four teams competing in the series played each other twice in a double round-robin format, with the top two progressing to the final and bottom two playing off in a third-place play-off. Matches were playing using a One Day International format with 50 overs per side.
The group worked on a points system with positions within the groups being based on the total points. Points were awarded as follows:[2]
Win: 4 points.
Tie: 2 points.
Loss: 0 points.
No Result/Abandoned: 2 points.
Bonus: 1 point available per match.
If the team batting first won the match and restricted their opponent to 80% of their total, they received a bonus point. If the team batting second won the match in 40 overs, they received a bonus point.
If points in the final table are equal, teams are separated by most wins, then head-to-head record, then number of bonus points, then Net Run Rate.
