The Celebrity Cricket League (CCL) 2026 Points Table keeps tabs on how all eight teams are doing in Season 12. Teams earn 2 points for every win, 1 point for a tie or a washout, and 0 points for a loss. When teams end up with the same number of points, Net Run Rate (NRR) sorts out who ranks higher.

After every match, the table is updated. Fans can check in anytime to see how their teams stack up, who’s in the playoff race, and which squads have found their groove. You’ll find the latest standings below, plus details on the playoff format, the CCL 2026 schedule, and some highlights from last season.

Highlights from CCL 2025

Punjab De Sher finally got their first CCL trophy in Season 11, taking down Chennai Rhinos by 8 wickets in a final that really wasn’t close. The match happened at the KSCA Ground in Mysuru on March 2, 2025. Harrdy Sandhu, the captain, set the tone, and Punjab chased just 72 runs, wrapping things up in less than 8 overs.

Earlier in the tournament, Bengal Tigers looked unstoppable: they finished the league stage unbeaten. Karnataka Bulldozers kept things steady all season, too. But Punjab timed their run perfectly. They knocked out Bengal Tigers in the first semi-final, while Chennai Rhinos got past Karnataka Bulldozers to reach the final.

Looking at the bigger picture, Telugu Warriors still sit at the top of the pile with four CCL titles. Karnataka Bulldozers and Chennai Rhinos each have two. Mumbai Heroes and Bengal Tigers both have one to their name.
