Teams have been divided into two groups of five each. After playing each team of their group once, the Top Three teams from both the groups will qualify for Super Six stage beginning from June 29. Although they will participate in a final, the Top Two teams will both qualify for the main event in India later this year.
Harare and Bulawayo, two premier Zimbabwean cricketing cities, will be hosting these matches across a couple of matches each. While the first two Group A matches on the first day of the competition will be played in Harare, Bulawayo will be hosting all the Group B league matches Monday onwards.
