The 2011 Champions League Twenty20 was the third edition of the Champions League Twenty20, an international Twenty20 cricket tournament. It was held in India from 19 September to 9 October 2011.

The tournament was the first edition to feature a qualifying stage, in which six teams competed for three places in the final stages. The final stages of the tournament had the same format as the previous season, with a group stage and a knockout stage.

During the group stage, teams were divided into two groups of five teams. The top two teams in each group qualified for the semi-finals. [2]

Squads

Eight players were originally nominated for two squads and were allowed to decide which team they would play for, in each case choosing their Indian Premier League team. [3] The tournament rules state each team may field only four overseas players, but an exception was made for Mumbai Indians who were allowed to field five as many of their Indian players were unable to play due to injury. Without this the team would have been unable to field a team. [4]

Venues
