T20 Cricket
Cricket's most explosive format. Twenty overs, massive hitting, and pure entertainment. From the global dominance of the IPL to the summer nights of the Vitality Blast, T20 is the game's modern engine.
Format Essentials
The rules that transformed cricket into a prime-time television staple.
Just 20 overs to set a target. Every delivery is a high-risk, high-reward opportunity.
Compact enough for evening viewing, mirroring the length of a major film or football match.
The first 6 overs limit the fielding side, encouraging aggressive boundary hitting.
The Franchise Revolution
T20 has driven the creation of city-based franchise leagues globally. Unlike traditional international cricket, these leagues allow players from different nations to play together in permanent squads, creating a new layer of tribalism and year-round high-stakes action.
