  All standard laws of the game as laid down by the MCC applied with the following significant differences:[3]
  
  • Games are played between two teams of seven players.
  • Games consist of six overs of six balls.
  • Each member of the fielding side, except for the wicket-keeper, shall bowl one over with only one member bowling two overs non consecutively.
  • Wides and no-balls count as the usual extra run to the batting side, plus an extra ball, with no free hit for no-balls.
  • A batter must retire 'not out' on reaching a personal score of 50 runs but may not retire before reaching 50 runs. If one of the last pair of batters is out, any retired 'not out' batter may resume his innings.
  • If five wickets fall before the 6 overs are completed, the last remaining batter shall bat on with the 5th out batter acting as a runner. The last remaining batter must always be the striker, and shall be declared out if his partner gets out (run out or obstructing the field). The innings shall be completed at the fall of the sixth wicket.
