- Pakistan's National T20 Cup changed all the teams after PSL began in 2016 and later shifting to a state level team structure. Thus, this National T20 Cup is same as before only in name. Hence, the 2nd tier tournament though exists, is being treated separately here.
- Abu Dhabi T20 Trophy was an invitational tournament and there was no criteria of being a champion of their respective T20 tournaments.
