RULES OF ENGAGEMENT

As we are stretched for time on the day, each batting innings can only last 15 minutes. We will be staggering the batting and bowling innings with 4 teams at a time.

In that 15 minutes the following will happen.
- 5 x 5 ball overs (25 balls) will be bowled by the bowling team,
- The batting team will always be ready to swap batsmen dismissed,
- The next pair of teams will have tossed and be padding up ready to walk straight onto the pitch after the other pair of teams have completed their 25 balls.

NOW the runs and extras

1 run  -  through single
2 runs - through singles
3 runs - through singles
4 runs - boundary (hitting the wall after the ball has bounced)
4 runs - wide
4 runs - no ball
4 runs - will be added to ALL over throws
6 runs - over the boundary on the full (hitting the wall on the full)
8 runs - no ball and batsman hits the ball for four
8 runs - wide and the ball makes it to the boundary for 4
10 runs - no ball and batsman hits the ball for 6

Dismissals

All normal cricket dismissals (bowled, LBW, Caught, run out, stumped etc..) are in play PLUS hitting the roof at the described level which will be shown on the day. Once given out please leave the field promptly without loitering at the crease. The umpires decision is final!!!!! and we need to get the new batsman at the crease immediately!!

FINAL
16:00 - 16:15 TEAMS winners of the sudden death playoffs
16:15 - 16:30 TEAMS winners of the sudden death playoffs (second innings)

If we find ourselves in the situation where 2 teams looking to progress into the sudden death playoffs have the same amount of victories, the team with the best strike rate (amount of runs / wickets given) will go through.
If this somehow manages to be the same then the team with the most amount of wickets taken will go through.
If this then again is the same (which I surely doubt) then the team that scored the most amount of 6's goes through.
