Rules of 6IXTY:
The rules of this T10 tournament are quite different as compared to the other cricket leagues. The batting teams will have only six wickets in hand than 10 with a powerplay period of two overs. If the batting team hits two 6’s in the first two overs then they will get a chance to have another third-over powerplay.
From a total of 60 balls which will be bowled, first 30 will be from one end and the remaining 30 will be bowled from the other end. Adding up further, if the bowling team fails to bowl 10 overs in 45 minutes then a fielder will be removed from the ground for the next 6 balls being bowled.
There is a part for the fans too where they can vote for a free-hit to the batsman. Here are the playing squads of the men’s team:
