3TC Solidarity Cup live streaming: 3TC Solidarity Cup rules

Every match in the tournament will be played between three teams of eight players each and all the action happens in 36 overs, which means every team get 12 overs to bat. The match is divided into two halves of 18 overs each. Here is a detailed look at all the rules of the 3TC Solidarity Cup 2020.

  • In the first half, teams rotate from batting to bowling to the Dugout and a draw determines the starting positions
  • In the second half, teams bat in order of the highest scores in the first half and if scores are tied, the first half order is reversed
  • After the fall of the 7th wicket, the not-out batter continues to bat alone. The batter can only score in even numbers of runs and can only bat in the second half. If the 7th wicket falls in the first half, the team forfeits the remaining balls in the first half and the not-out batter resumes the innings in the second half
  • Each bowling team has the use of one new ball for their full 12 overs which is used for both opponents
  • A match can only be shortened by weather to 18, 24 or 30 overs in terms of a formula laid down by 3TC
