Squads

Each participating member nation was required to name a 15-player squad at the start of the tournament.
No upgrades could've been spent to improve players mid-tournament; upgrades need to be made during squad announcement.

Lineups

Playing XIs were required to contain at least one capable wicket-keeper (:wk:/:wkb:/:arwk:) and six bowling (:arwk:/:bwl:/:ar:) options.

Format

The seven participants were split into one group of four and one group of three where they played each nation in their group - once.
Top-two nations from Group A and Group B advanced to the semi-finals with the winners of each game playing the final.

Knockouts of Asian Cup 2001 were scheduled to be played in three of the four venues hosting the tournament.

Points System

Points were awarded using the following system during the group stage:

Win: 3 points / Tie: 2 points / N/R: 1 point / Loss: 0 points

Player Injuries

Injuries were randomly simulated to give this league somewhat of a realistic edge.
Players that play without a rest were more likely to get injured.

Following were the types of injuries:
