The 2013 Champions League Twenty20 was the fifth edition of Champions League Twenty20, an international Twenty20 cricket tournament. It was held in India from 17 September to 6 October 2013.[2][3]
Sydney Sixers were the defending champions, but failed to qualify for the event. Mumbai Indians won their second title, defeating Rajasthan Royals by 33 runs in the final.[4]

Format
[edit | edit source]The tournament featured a qualifying stage and group stage. During the qualifying stage, four teams played a round-robin tournament with the top two teams qualifying for the final stage. These two teams join the eight teams that received direct entry in the final stage in two groups of five teams. The top two teams from each group advanced to the knockout stage
Qualification
[edit | edit source]English county cricket teams refused to participate due to the competition clashing with the end of the County Championship.[5] Trinidad and Tobago received direct qualification to the final stage for the first time. The winners of the Sri Lanka Premier League were originally scheduled to participate in the qualifying stage before the Sri Lankan tournament was cancelled.[3][6]
