The tournament is played in round robin mode, i.e. everyone against everyone else. The matches are to be played to a distance of 25 points with a maximum of 30 innings and with equalizing shot. The ranking in the final classification is based on the number of match points (win = 2 MPs, draw = 1 MP, defeat = 0 MPs) before the general average, followed by the high run, after which the ranking is ex aequo. The circle of title contenders is large due to the evenness of the field. Slight favorite of the bookmakers to win the tournament is Home Tour record champion and also MWS coach Andreas Efler.
