As on October 6, 2011 (after Som v War, RCB v Redb)
Pools A & B are qualifying pools.
Each team will play two qualifying matches, and the top team in each Qualifying Pool, along with the next highest ranked team (decided on Points, then Net Run Rate), will go through to the Group stage.
The top team in Pool A will be designated Q1 in the Group Stage.
The top team in Pool B will be designated Q2 in the Group Stage.
The next highest ranked team will be designated Q3 in the Group Stage.
Should Kolkata Knight Riders qualify as the “next highest ranked team”, they will assume the Q1 position in the Group Stage, and the top team in Qualifying Pool A will assume the Q3 position in the Group Stage.
Notes to Group Stage and Semi Finals
If Chennai Super Kings qualifies for the Semi Finals, they will play their Semi Final in Chennai, regardless of finishing position.
If Royal Challengers Bangalore qualifies for the Semi Finals, they will play their Semi Final in Bangalore, regardless of finishing position, unless they are drawn to play Chennai Super Kings, in which case they will play in Semi Final 2 in Chennai (due to CSK being the defending CLT20 Champions).
