However, it is not yet decided which players will play in this tournament. According to the organizers, the purpose of this tournament is to connect new fans to cricket.
This is the shortest format of cricket, which can be called 5-5. In this, a maximum of 6 players can play in a team and here 5 overs are played in an innings. The interesting thing is that in this match, even if a team loses the first 5 wickets, the last batsman of the team will bat alone and this inning will be considered over only when either all 5 overs are over or the last batsman is also out.
An interesting rule is that the batsman will leave the crease as soon as he scores 31 runs. Now he will be able to come back to bat only when the rest of the batsmen of the team are either out or retire.
In this match, except the wicketkeeper, all other players will have to bowl one over each. Apart from this, the team will get two extra runs for every wide and no-ball. Apart from this, in the final of the tournament, 8 balls will have to be bowled in an over instead of 6.
