Eligibility & Registration

Open to corporate employees working in corporate companies. Players must be 45 years or below as of 31 December 2026. Eligible participants register for TCPL Season IV by completing the registration process and paying the applicable registration fee.

Net Selection Trials & Open Selection Matches

All registered players are assigned dates and time slots for Net Selection Trials, held only on Saturdays and Sundays. A Cricket Expert Selection Committee evaluates players. Based on Net Selection performance, players are shortlisted and grouped into teams for Open Selection Matches. Final Season IV players are selected from Open Selection Match performance. Attendance is mandatory — absence makes a player ineligible and the registration fee is non-refundable.

Team Formation & League

Finally shortlisted players are divided into 16 teams competing in a League-cum-Knockout format. Team formation is carried out by the TCPL selection/management team based on the selection process.

League & Knockout Round

The 16 teams are divided into pools and play round-robin within their pool. The top-ranked team from each pool qualifies for the Knockout Stage, leading to the TCPL Season IV Final.

Note 1: Players who have participated in the last three seasons will be selected directly based on existing performance statistics.
Note 2: Each team's squad of 16 "probables" must include two Under-19 players under the "non-corporate" quota.

Attendance at your assigned selection session is mandatory. Absence makes you ineligible and the registration fee is non-refundable. The entire process follows the rules and decisions of the TCPL League Management Committee.
