Sunrisers Hyderabad and Otago Volts both played brilliant cricket and excelled as a team in Qualifiers. Both Otago Volts and Sunrsiers Hyderabad have good pace attach while Hyderabad have good T20 spinner in Amit Mishra. As Rajasthan Royals, Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad will be playing in their courtyard so all these teams have upper edge on other participating teams.
This champions League T20 Cricket tournament is going to be the last domestic T20 tournament for master batsman Sachin Tendulkar. So he will try to end the domestic T20 career on high note while his teams are planning to win this T20 Tournament for him. Mumbai Indians will definitely miss the services of their star strike bowler Lasith Malinga.
Semi-finals of the Champions League Twenty20 will be played on 4th Oct at Jaipur and 5th Oct at Delhi respectively. The final for the Champions League T20 title will be played on the 6th October 2013 at Delhi.
