Mumbai, Aug 18 - The Champions League T20 (CLT20) governing council Tuesday clarified the rules relating to players who have qualified for multiple teams for the inaugural tournament starting October 8.

Under CLT20 rules, if a player qualifies for more than one team, all those qualifying teams can nominate that player.

'If the player then decides to play for an 'away' team rather than his 'home' team (the team from the country he is eligible to represent in international cricket), the 'away' team must pay US$200,000 compensation to the 'home' team,' an official statement said.

'Away teams are not eligible for compensation if a player chooses to play for his home team,' it said.

Some of the players who are eligible to play for multiple teams include Nathan Bracken (NSW Blues, RC Bangalore), Brendon McCullum (Otago Bolts, NSW Blues), Dirk Nannes (Victorian Bushrangers, Delhi Daredevils), David Warner (NSW Blues, Delhi Daredevils), Herchelle Gibbs (Cape Cobras, Deccan Chargers) etc.
