The 2010 Champions League Twenty20 was the second edition of the Champions League Twenty20, an international Twenty20 cricket tournament. The tournament, which was held from 10 to 26 September 2010 in South Africa, featured 10 domestic Twenty20 sides from India, Australia, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, the West Indies and South Africa.[1][2] The Chennai Super Kings emerged the winners of the tournament, defeating the Warriors in the final.
Host selection
In February 2010, Cricket South Africa announced that South Africa was chosen as the host of the tournament. This was later denied by tournament chairman Lalit Modi, who listed South Africa, Australia, England, India and the Middle East all as possible contenders for hosting the tournament.[3] On April 25 2010, at the conclusion of the 2010 Indian Premier League, it was announced that South Africa was officially chosen as the host of the tournament. South Africa had previously hosted other major Twenty20 tournaments, including the 2007 ICC World Twenty20 and the 2009 Indian Premier League.[4]
Format
The tournament consisted of the ten top domestic teams from six countries as determined by the domestic Twenty20 tournaments of those countries. The tournament consists of 23 matches, and is divided into a group stage and a knockout stage. If a match ends in a tie, a Super Over will be played to determine the winner.
The group stage has the teams divided into two equal groups, with each playing a round-robin tournament. The top two teams of each group advances to the advance to the knockout stage. The knockout stage consists of two semi-finals, with the top team of one group facing the second from the other. The winners of the semi-finals play the grand final to determine the winner of the competition.[5]
Points awarded in the group stage:
| Result | Points |
|---|---|
| Win | 2 points |
| No result | 1 point |
| Loss | 0 points |
Prize money
Same as the previous tournament, the total prize money for the competition is US$6 million. In addition to the prize money, each team receives a participation fee of $500,000.[6] The prize money will be distributed as follows:
- $200,000 – Each team eliminated in the group stage
- $500,000 – Each semi-finalist
- $1.3 million – Runners-up
- $2.5 million – Winners
Teams
This tournament has two fewer teams compared to the previous tournament due to the absence of English county teams because the tournament dates clash with the end of England's domestic season.[7] The England national team also has a One Day International series with Pakistan during the tournament period. The format of the tournament was modified to accommodate this.
Apart from England, Pakistan is the only other top-eight Test-playing nation not to be represented in the tournament. In February 2010, Ijaz Butt, the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board, had reportedly refused participation in the tournament due to the snubbing of Pakistani cricketers in the 2010 Indian Premier League player auction. The auction resulted in none of them being bought for the league.[8] Butt later stated his comments were misunderstood, but the Champions League administrators had already decided to leave out Pakistan due to Butt's statements. Champions League officials have made contradicting statements as to whether a Pakistan team would have been considered regardless of Butt's statement. Pakistan was also absent from the previous tournament due to the deterioration of relations between host nation India and Pakistan.[9]
Teams qualified for the Champions League through the following qualifying tournaments:
| Domestic tournament | Teams from | Teams |
|---|---|---|
| 2010 Indian Premier League | India |
3 (Winner, runner-up and third place) |
| 2010 Standard Bank Pro20 | South Africa |
2 (Winner and runner-up) |
| 2009–10 KFC Twenty20 Big Bash |  Australia |
2 (Winner and runner-up) |

1 (Winner) |
| 2010 Inter-Provincial Twenty20 |  Sri Lanka |
1 (Winner) |
| 2010 Caribbean Twenty20 |  West Indies |
1 (Top performing domestic team) |
The tournament will only feature three teams from the previous tournament. Other teams failed to qualify, including the previous tournament's champions, the New South Wales Blues of Australia.[2] The following teams have qualified for the competition:
| Team | Domestic tournament | Position | Appearance | Group |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chennai Super Kings | 2010 Indian Premier League |

| Mumbai Indians | 2010 Indian Premier League |

Squads
Several teams are missing star players that helped them qualify for the tournament, mostly due to their commitment to another qualified team or to their national team.[13] In the case of a player being a part of more than one qualified team, he can play for his "home" team (the team from the country he is eligible to represent in international cricket) without consequence. If he plays for any other team, that team must pay the home team US$200,000 as compensation.[5] The Royal Challengers Bangalore were the only team to pay the compensation, forcing three international players to play for them instead of their home team.[14] Jacques Kallis, Cameron White and Ross Taylor were obligated to play for Bangalore as their contracts stated Bangalore had first rights over them should they qualify for the tournament with another team.[15]
Venues
The tournament is to be hosted at four venues across South Africa. All four venues will be used in the group stage. Both the Warriors and Highveld Lions will play some of the group stage matches at their respective home grounds of St George's Park and Wanderers Stadium. The semi-finals will be held at Sahara Stadium Kingsmead and Supersport Park while the final is to be held at Wanderers Stadium.[16]

Chennai crowned ACL T20 champions Chennai Super Kings are the crowned champions of the Airtel Champions League Twenty20 after beating Warriors by 8-wkts in the final.
Muttiah Muralitharan (three for 16) and Ravichandran Ashwin (two for 16) starred with the ball to restrict the home side a mediocre 128 for seven, with only home captain Davy Jacobs (34) making any meaningful contribution.
Murali Vijay (58) and Michael Hussey (51) then hit half-centuries in a 103-run partnership to hand the Indian Premier League champions the title of best Twenty20 club in world cricket.
After winning the toss, the Warriors made a powerful start putting on 39 for the first wicket, which the out-of-form Ashwell Prince contributed just six towards before he played on from Doug Bollinger.
Jacobs, who found the boundary eight times in his 21-ball stay, fell shortly after when he was trapped leg before wicket while trying to reverse sweep Ashwin, the leading wicket-taker in the competition, leaving his side at 45 for two in the sixth over.
Colin Ingram and Justin Kreusch then found the going tough against the slower bowlers, reaching the halfway stage at 66, and the loss of the former for 16 further hampered their progress.
Muralitharan then struck a double blow in the 14th over removing the dangerous Mark Boucher (five) and Kreusch (17).
Craig Thyssen (25) tried to lift the Warriors, but the two spinners were difficult to get away as they kept the victory target down to a below-par 129.
In reply Vijay, who surpassed Jacobs during his stay to end as the top-run getter in the tournament, and Hussey were calm, yet convincing, in their approach.
They took seven overs to reach 50, before the India opener raised his 50 from 47 balls.
The century stand followed in the 15th over, before his wicket fell followed by that of Suresh Raina (two).
But Hussey and Mahendra Singh Dhoni (17 not out) guided their side over the line.
Teams:
Chennai Super Kings: Michael Hussey, Murali Vijay, Suresh Raina, Subramaniam Badrinath, MS Dhoni(w/c), Albie Morkel, Srikkanth Anirudha, Ravichandran Ashwin, Lakshmipathy Balaji, Muttiah Muralitharan, Doug Bollinger
Warriors: Davey Jacobs(c), Ashwell Prince, Colin Ingram, Mark Boucher(w), Craig Thyssen, Justin Kreusch, Johan Botha, Nicky Boje, Juan Theron, Makhaya Ntini, Lonwabo Tsotsobe
