Format

One Format. Four Innings. Built for Drama.

Every rule exists to keep the match unpredictable until the last over.

4X Cricket

Everyone Bats Twice.

Four innings of ten overs each, forty overs a side.

A slow start doesn't decide the match. Team A bats, then Team B, then Team A again, then Team B closes it out. The combined score across both innings wins it, and a big third innings can flip the whole match.

No Coin. No Chance.

The Coin Toss Doesn't Exist Here.

The match starts with a Bowl-Out.

Amateur players open the game by bowling at the stumps, no batter in the way. First team to hit wins the toss. Still tied? The captains settle it with rock-paper-scissors, under the umpire's watch.

The Rules

Six Mechanics. One Format.

Everything that makes 4X Cricket different from a standard match.

  1. 01

    Four innings per match, ten overs each

    Every match is split into four blocks of ten overs. Forty overs a side, nothing longer, nothing shorter.

  2. 02

    Every side bats twice

    Team A bats, then Team B, then Team A again, then Team B closes it out. The combined score across both innings wins it.

  3. 03

    Squads mix international pros, USA internationals, and amateurs from the Social Loop Contest

    Every squad has five international pros, two USA internationals, and four amateurs picked through the Social Loop Contest.

  4. 04

    The toss is a Bowl-Out, not a coin flip

    Amateurs open the game bowling at the stumps, no batter in the way. First team to hit wins the toss. Ties go to rock-paper-scissors between captains, under the umpire's watch.

  5. 05

    Bowlers cap at two overs an innings, four across the match

    Every squad bowls at least two amateur overs each innings. No bowler goes past four overs across the whole match.

  6. 06

    A match can end after three innings — or go to a Bowl-Out shootout

    If the chasing team's first innings alone beats the rival's combined total, it ends there. Still level after four? Five bowlers a side, two of them amateurs, one ball each.
