2013 Caribbean Premier League

The Caribbean Premier League (abbreviated to CPL or CPLT20) is an annual T20 Cricket Tournament held in the Caribbean by the West Indies Cricket Board replacing the Caribbean T20 Cricket Tournament and the tournament is currently sponsored by Limacol and thus officially titled the Limacol CPL

Format
The tournament is played between six teams and is divided into a group stage and a knockout stage. In the group stage, the teams each play ten matches overall, three of which are at home. This unusual format occurs because all six teams are co-located at a single playing site for five sequential matches of the tourney, then the whole tournament moves to a new location for five more games (and so on)

The playoff stage includes two semi-finals and a final to determine the winner of the tournament
