2014 will see a change to the quarter final draws for CPL
if it is successful, this will be replicated to other divisions in future years
The main idea is that on Saturday night, once all CPL preliminary games have ended, we will do the draw for Sunday quarter-finals via the webcast MSTV.
The way we do this is relatively simple, the first of each group will draw a second from another group randomly.
The main goal is to avoid, as we have seen in recent years during the pool stages,
the ability for teams to throw games, I'll say it as it is.
Teams know from the start of the tournament who they are playing.
This is the case at Millennium and PSP, the main idea is that each game will count
and it will be important to finish first in your pool
as you will face, on paper, a weaker team in the quarter finals
and since you will not know who you will face now it will be all the more important to come first in pool stages.
This year, using this system, we will solve 90% of the problems we had with games in the past,
thrown games or match fixing,
it will be impossible or virtually impossible as teams will have to win every game if they want to have any chance of reaching the semi-finals.
