The Sixes format of cricket is a condensed version of the traditional game, where each team consists of six players instead of the usual eleven.

Sixes cricket features shorter matches, smaller team sizes and a focus on aggressive batting and fast-paced action, creating a more dynamic and entertaining experience.

The Sixes is the fastest format of cricket, with the key difference between the traditional game being that each match takes just 45 minutes to complete.

As the name suggests the game is six players per side compared with the usual 11, which means once the bowler and wicket-keeper are in position there aren’t many fieldsmen that the batting team need to evade to hit lots of ball to an over the boundaries.

Each team faces five overs each, and everyone (except for the wicketkeeper) is required to bowl one over each.

Batsmen are forced to retire at 31, but can come back in once all other batsmen have been dismissed or have retired. This can make for some interesting situations at the end of the innings with the lower-order taking risky singles knowing that if they are out, their in-form batsman can come back in.

Sixes cricket is popular for its exciting gameplay, accessibility to players of all skill levels and its ability to attract larger audiences due to its shorter format and emphasis on big hitting.

The Sixes format allows for quicker matches, encourages innovative strategies and provides opportunities for players to showcase their skills in a condensed and dynamic setting.
