The 6ixty 2022 is all set to start on Thursday, August 25, with Guyana Amazon Warriors opening the proceedings against Saint Lucia Kings.
The six-team tournament, which will be played in a T10 format, will have a total of 12 matches being played across five days. The final is scheduled for August 29.
The teams participating in the competition are Jamaica Tallawahs, St. Lucia Kings, Trinbago Knight Riders, St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots, Barbados Royals and Guyana Amazon Warriors.
The 6ixty 2022 rules
The one-of-a-kind tournament has a different set of rules altogether. For starters, each batting team will have just six wickets. This means by the end of the sixth wicket, the team will be all-out.
If the bowling team fails to finish their allotted overs in 45 minutes, they will need to remove one fielder from the ground for the final over, meaning only 10 players, including the bowler, can be on the field.
The batting teams will have two powerplay overs in the innings. However, they can unlock the third one by hitting two sixes in the first 12 balls. Each powerplay will last two overs.
Fans will have the right to choose the timing of a ‘Mystery Free Hit’. A batsman cannot be dismissed on that delivery.
Interestingly, as many as 30 balls will be bowled from one end. The action will switch to the other end for the remaining overs.
No bowler will be allowed to bowl more than two overs in an innings.
