The 2010–11 Caribbean Twenty20 season was the second season of the Caribbean Twenty20, a domestic Twenty20 tournament administrated by the West Indies Cricket Board. The season began on 10 January 2011, six months after the 2010 tournament, and concluded with the final on 23 January. The tournament was moved to be considerably earlier than the Champions League Twenty20, for which the best performing domestic team will qualify. The move also gives preferable weather conditions, as many matches were affected by rain in 2010.[1] The tournament had ten participating teams, featuring all eight from the 2010 season and the addition of the winners and runners-up of the 2010 Friends Provident t20 – England's domestic Twenty20 tournament.

Trinidad and Tobago won the tournament and qualified for the qualifying stage of the 2011 Champions League Twenty20. They defeated Hampshire in the final. Jamaica came third and Windward Islands came fourth.

Venues

All matches were played at the following two grounds:

North Sound, Antigua	Bridgetown, Barbados
Sir Vivian Richards Stadium	Kensington Oval
Capacity: 10,000	Capacity: 15,000
North Sound Bridgetown

Format

The tournament consisted of 24 matches, and was divided into a group stage and a knockout stage. If a match ended in a tie, a Super Over was to be played to determine the winner. The group stage had the teams divided into two equal groups, with each playing a round-robin tournament. The top two teams of each group advanced to the knockout stage. The knockout stage consisted of two semi-finals, a third-place playoff and the grand final. The semi-finals had the top team of one group facing the second from the other. The winners of the semi-finals played in the grand final to determine the winner of the competition, while the losers of the semi-finals played in the third-place playoff.

Points in the group stage were awarded as follows:
