Points table pet peeve

Points table order should be based on W/L ratio, not simply points.  Thus, teams that have played 13 matches to earn 14 points (RCB/MI) should be below teams that have played 12 matches to earn 14 points (KKR/GL before today).  Giving all 14-point teams the same points status and then sorting by NRR is weird.  That is all.

It's like in the NBA, for example.  If Team A has played 40 games to win 28, and Team B has played only 36 games to win 28, Team B is ranked above Team A regardless of points scored.  W/L ratio just makes more sense. 

 

It's no biggie, just a peeve.

The thing is there is no prize for being on top through the season. In the end,everybody will have the same no of matches so there's no point having a rule like that.

But this should be applied to decide orange caps and purple ones. Esp purple cap. If two player have same number of wickets, then the one playing the lesser number of games should get it instead of checking economy  and average. Watson and chahal are tied. Watson has played three more matches than chahal.
