What Is the Hong Kong Sixes?
The Hong Kong Sixes is one of cricket's most entertaining tournaments. Teams have six players, and each side bats for up to six overs, so games are short, fast and packed with boundaries. Scores of 100 or more in six overs are common.
For readers new to cricket: an over is six legal deliveries, so a six-over innings is just 36 balls. A normal T20 innings has 120.
Format: Groups, Cup, Plate and Bowl
The 12 teams are split into four groups of three. Each team plays the other two in its group, and where they finish decides which knockout competition they enter:
| Group finish | Competition |
| 1st | Cup (the main title) |
| 2nd | Plate |
| 3rd | Bowl |
Each competition has two semi-finals on Saturday and a final on Sunday. There are also play-offs on Sunday to decide 3rd/4th, 7th/8th and 11th/12th place.
