The teams which finish 1st and 2nd on the league table will progress to the final.

Should any sides in the league table be equal on points the right to be placed in the higher position in the league table and/or progress to the final will be decided in the following order of priority:

(a) Most outright wins
(b) Most first innings leads
(c) Highest net runs per wicket ratio

In the event the final is a tie the Intercontinental Cup 2009 & 2010 will be shared.
