IPL Triples [complete]

This tournament will follow the same format as my IPL 2013 tournament, but with triples teams instead of doubles.

Games will be triples with fixed settings automatic, sequential, 20 round limit. Home map and remaining settings to be chosen by team. There will be 9 teams (27 players).
Format
Format is double round robin with top 4 placed teams advancing to playoffs.

Double Round Robin:
Two games will be played against each other team, using each teams home settings. Two points for a win, zero for a loss. In the case of a tie for a playoff spot at the end of the double round robin, then Net Round Rate (NRR) will be considered across all games, which is determined by -x for each win, and +x for each loss, where x is the number of rounds the game lasted for. The team(s) with the better NRR would advance to the playoffs. If teams are tied for both points and NRR then a game will be played on random map and settings to decide.

Playoffs:
Q1: rank 1 plays rank 2 -> winner advances to final, loser advances to Q2

Eliminator: rank 3 plays rank 4 -> winner advances to Q2

Winner of Q2 advances to the final, and winner of the final wins the tournament.

The 4 playoff games will be played on a random map with random settings.
Teams
There will be 9 teams, as in the IPL 2013:
Chennai Super Kings - Clive, comet1612, HardAttack - Pot Mosbi, no spoils, adj, fog, trench
Delhi Daredevils - slytown, 110313, t4mcr53s2 - world 2.1, no spoils, chained, fog, no trench

You may pick an available franchise on signup. I will aim to have each team in no more than 2 games at a time, so freemiums are welcome if they reserve 2 spots for the tournament.

I would like to remind everyone that this tournament is based on the Indian Premier League cricket - I am not accepting personal team names, only the 9 teams who participated in this year's tournament. They are listed in the first post.

Play as RCB!
(Royal Challengers Bangalore :))

Mumbai Indians are the current champions though, so they wouldn't be too bad an option either ;)

In cricket it means "Net Run Rate" which I have adapted here to mean "Net Round Rate". It's the kicker if points are tied - essentially it's better win quickly and lose slowly. Full details are in the OP.

Table updated with all games completed up to match 15.

RCB are ahead, being the only team to win their opening 4 games. The rest of the table is extremely tight.

Table updated.The league as a whole is showing a very dominant home advantage, with 80% of the completed games resulting in a home win. Fittingly similar to the real IPL, it looks like the teams to make the playoffs will be the ones who can win most of their home games, supplemented with 2-3 away wins.

Quick question, does it benefit your NRR to have your winning games go longer, or shorter?

Shorter. You want to win in as few rounds as possible.
