Each innings will constitute a maximum of 5 overs (Max 1 over per bowler)

7 batsmen will be allowed to bat, 6 wickets are required to constitute bowling out a side

Anyone in your squad can bat or bowl in any game. eg if your 8th member did not bat, he is still allowed to bowl in the same game.

Batter will retire when he reaches 30, he will be allowed to come back in once his team has been bowled out.

Bowlers run ups will be marked out at 7 metres.

No fielding restrictions

Wides will be judged as anything down the leg side, and out of reach on the off side. If playing umpires are involved, I would call upon common sense and fair play in this regard.

No free hits for no balls.
