The 6ixty format is primarily a T10 competition but with a ‘difference’.

  • Each batting team has six wickets instead of ten.
  • Teams will bowl five consecutive overs from each end, without changing the end after each over.
  • Batting teams can temporarily ‘unlock’ the third powerplay by hitting two sixes in the first two overs of powerplay.
  • If teams fail to complete their 10 overs within 45 minutes, one fielder will be removed for the last six balls.
  • Fans will be able to vote for ‘Mystery Free Hits’ through any app or website

The Hundred Returns: As CWI prepares to launch its new product, The Hundred returns for its second edition later this summer. The ECB expects to build on the inaugural tournament last year.
