Hong Kong Sixes marks its return after a period of seven years, starting from November 1-3 at Tin Kwong Road Cricket Ground. The tournament will feature 13 teams including India, Pakistan, Australia, England, and South Africa among others.
Hong Sixes 2024 Format
The format of the tournament features six players a side and the team bats for five overs only. Wide and no-ball penalties are stricter, with two runs awarded per infraction, raising the stakes for precise bowling. Batters reaching 31 runs must retire “not out” but can return if other teammates are dismissed, leading to attacking play.
If five wickets fall, the last batter can continue solo, supported by a non-striking runner, ensuring that all six players must be dismissed to end the innings. The prime clash on Day 1 will feature age-old rivals India and Pakistan competing on the stage. Here are the details.
