Champions League XX
PC Champions League 20, officially known as Champions League XX is the 22nd entry in the Champions League series and the 20th canonical edition of the Champions League, a club cricket championship contested on the PlanetCricket forums. Na Maloom Afraad will takeover the hosting duties for a record fourth time, having previously hosted the 14th, 16th and 18th editions of the league. Played in the 50 over List A format, it is by far the most prestigious cricketing league on the forums.

Winners from Zimbabwe Premier League, a cricket league considered PlanetCricket royalty, will take on the champion sides of the renowned Haier Cup Pakistan and Indian One-Day Championship competitions, as well as titleholders from exciting first-time entrant leagues, the Big Bash League, the Amarnath-Kardar Trophy and the Emerald Cricket League.
Zimbabwe will host their second Champions League, having previously played tournament hosts in the 12th edition.
