The playoff format, meanwhile, is unchanged from the second season: the top two teams advance to the first round of the playoffs, while the third and fourth-place teams compete in the Eliminator. This means that four teams will make it to the postseason. The loser of Qualifier 1 will face the victor of the Eliminator, with a spot in the final up for grabs.
With the participation of several international stars, like Kane Williamson, Ben Stokes, and Dinesh Karthik among others, League Commissioner Smith was ecstatic to announce the next edition, which he expects to be more larger and better in 2025.
With an incredible schedule of games that will enthral our fans, Season 3 is expected to be bigger and better. We are excited to begin the season in Gqeberha with our reigning champions and anticipate an exciting summer of cricket.
