Here's everything you need to know, from the new rules to live streaming details for the upcoming Men's 6IXTY 2022 tournament, which starts August 25th.
The cricket world is in for a treat in the coming days as the Men's 6IXTY 2022 gets underway on August 25th. The tournament is played with six teams in a T10 format and includes a total of 12 games over five days. The tournament concludes with the summit battle on August 29, where one of the teams will select the Universe Boss Trophy, named after tournament ambassador Chris Gayle. According to the 6IXTY 2022 official website, the tournament will be played with new rules.
The six-team tournament is played in the T10 format, but with more than a few twists and turns. The competition provides for a total of 12 games to be played over five days.
The teams participating in the Men's 6IXTY 2022 are Jamaica Tallawahs, St. Lucia Kings, Trinbago Knight Riders, St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots, Barbados Royals and Guyana Amazon Warriors, as well as the CPL.
They will compete for the Universe Boss Trophy, named after tournament ambassador Chris Gayle.
The new rules for the 6IXTY are as follows:
- Each batting team has six wickets - by the fall of the sixth wicket they are all out
- Each batting team has two PowerPlay overs. They can unlock a third PowerPlay by hitting two sixes in the first 12 balls. This additional PowerPlay over may be played at any time between overs 3-9
- 30 balls are thrown from one end before the action switches to the other end for the final 30 balls
- The 30 balls are delivered as 5 separate overs, with no bowler being able to bowl more than 2 overs for the innings.
- If teams do not bowl their overs within the allotted time, one member of their team will be removed from the field for the last six balls.
- The fans vote on the timing of a "Mystery Fan Ball" where a batter cannot be dismissed by the bowler.
