Rules:



The Laws of Cricket apply, except:

  • Games are played between two teams of six players, and each game consists of a maximum of five six-ball overs bowled by each side (eight-ball overs in the grand final).

  • Each member of the fielding side bowls one over, with the exception of the wicket-keeper.

  • Wides and no-balls count as two runs and are re-bowled.

  • Free Hit for all no-balls.

  • If five wickets fall before 5 overs are completed, the last remaining batsman bats on with the fifth batsman acting as a runner. He always takes strike. The innings is complete when the sixth wicket falls.

  • Batsmen retire not out on reaching 31 runs. The idea being to reach 36 runs by hitting 6 sixes. A retired batsman can return to the crease after lower-order batsmen either retire or are out.

  • All Overs Bowled from One End.

  • Batsman in Next, to Square Leg Umpire, until the 4th wicket, when the first dismissed batsman will square leg umpire.

  • Only Old 4 Piece Balls will be used.

  • Free Interchange of players between games, including finals

  • Teams to wear the same uniform, that they supply themselves.

  • Maximum of a 6 step run-up

  • The home team (team listed first) bats first (no coin toss) except for the Grand Final
