UKC Format

The brand new format won’t have teams instead it will have individual players facing each other. Yes, you read that right in UKC 2 mega players will clash against each other in a match. The format is a 30 ball competition which consists of 4 innings of 15-balls each in every match.

A UKC Contender, also termed Gladiator, can bowl a minimum of 8 balls per innings, while a sub player – an ‘Ace’ – can bowl a maximum of 7 balls per innings. The contender with more runs at the end of each match will be the winner, and 2 points will be awarded for each win in the league stage.

Each player will be given a wicketkeeper and a fielder and the match will be played inside a dome. The dome will be divided into 6 zones, and each zone has different scoring systems. The list of zones is as follows.

Zone A – 1 run
Zone B- 1 run
Zone C – 2 runs
Zone D – 3 runs
Zone E – with a bounce 4 runs
Zone E – Direct 6 runs

 There will be 2 bullseye boards in 2 zones and if a batter, who hits the Bullseye (behind the bowler) scores 12 runs, gains an extra ball to play. Bullseye on the square of wickets will get the batter 4 runs and every time a batter gets out; 5 runs will be deducted from the total. Scoring is divided into 6 scoring zones.
