I think everyone is getting very confused about the format of the tournament.
I read in the ICC official site that there will be a qualifying tournament in November and then teams (I forgot the number, i think it's 4) will join Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in the
1st round of the main 2014 tournament. Winners (2) of the two groups will then join the 2nd round of the 2014 event.
The link is here

It's very unprofessional for a body like ICC not to put up a dedicated site for a global event. The 2012 T20 site is here

So November event is qualifying one, not the pre-event 1st round. Everyone is mixing the qualifying round and the 1st round.
