SPECIFIC RULES OF THE 6UP GAME OF SKILL 

    SECTION I 

    INTRODUCTION 

6UP is a fantastic new skill game that adds thrill to watching Cricket: use your cricket related knowledge and skill to determine the runs for each ball in an over – determine the first 6, 5, 4 valid balls or the Runs per Over (RPO) correctly and your skill will earn you instant rewards. 

How 6UP Works: 

It’s simple. 

As you’re watching cricket, evaluate how many runs the batsmen are likely to make in the over (the RPO) - then - just send us a SMS message describing how you see these runs coming about during the over – in other words, the runs for each ball. 

So if you determine that the RPO for the next over will be Twelve (12) and the runs will come in boundaries, you would text us something like 444000. 

How you sequence each of the 6 balls depends on your reading and evaluation of the cricket match, which you play live in real time along with the match. 

To play in an over, you text us your 6 ball entry and we reply back confirming: your Entry (ball-by-ball and RPO), your over of play, the live match score and the current value of the prize you are playing for. 

You then watch your over play out and see just how accurate your Entry for the over is. 

If you are a winner we will text you confirming that: you’ve won, exactly how much you have won and how to collect your win. All winners will be paid via cheque, irrespective of their win amount. A winner will receive a cheque worth of his/her win amount once the total win amount exceeds Rs200.00. A small administrative fee, not exceeding Rs35.00, will be deducted from win amount exceeding Rs.1,000.00.

How to Use Skill: 

The best thing about this game is you can really use your cricket knowledge and skill to improve your success.  

6UP is played along with live cricket, allowing every Participant to take into consideration all match conditions prior to making an Entry. 

In this way, participants have an insight into everything that’s happening in the match right at the moment they want to play. It is the only game of it’s kind in the world engineered to enable participants to participate in the game in true, real time and utilize their skill to the extreme. 

There are three main areas of skill that participants can apply to 6UP and each level has a major impact on the likelihood of success. They are: 

1.  Your basic cricket knowledge

2.  Your basic knowledge of a particular cricket match and teams playing the match

3.  Your understanding of the live cricket match and various factors and conditions affecting the match, including past and current performance of the players.

      6. two runs scored from the last valid ball of 6UP Over.
 

    (b) The runs may be scored through runs from the bat or glove, overthrows, leg byes or byes. You need to answer the number of runs scored on the ball on which a wicket might also fall. For example, if the batsman is clean bowled, You need to answer the runs scored on that ball as 0 (zero) and if the batsman gets out as run out and 1 valid run was scored on that ball, then You need to answer 1 (one) run for that ball. 

  1. Only first six numerical characters entered will be considered valid and accepted as a valid 6UP Entry. For example, if the Entry received is “21041166”, it shall be accepted as “210411” as a valid 6UP Entry.
 
  1. An 6UP Entry that is shorter than six numerical characters is completed with trailing zeroes. For example, if the Entry received is “2141”, it shall be accepted as “214100” as a valid 6UP Entry.
 
  1. All dots or spaces between the numbers in a 6UP Entry shall be accepted after removing the dot or space between the numbers. For example, if the Entry received is “2.1.4.0.1.1” or “2 1 4 0 1 1”, it shall be accepted as “214011” as a valid 6UP Entry.
 
  1. A blank 6UP Entry is accepted as all zeros (000000) or a maiden over (with or without wickets).
 
  1. Other than the Entries illustrated above, any other text whatsoever in nature will be deemed invalid.

     

  1. An Entry is valid for valid balls bowled only. A valid ball is a ball which does not cause any extra ball to be bowled for that 6UP Over. Wides and no balls including the run(s) scored from them shall be ignored for the purposes of a 6UP Over entry and the score for the next valid ball will be accepted. For example Your 6UP entry for an over was 464000 and the first three balls score is 4-6-4 followed by a wide, the wide will not be scored as a run for the purpose of the 6UP Game. If the next three valid balls are 0-0-0 the winning 6UP entry would be 464000.
 
  1. If in a 6UP Over, an umpire erroneously declares an over bowled, i.e. (a) declares over bowled with less then 6 balls being actually bowled; or (b) declares over bowled after more then 6 balls of the over has already been bowled. In such an event the effect of the validity of the 6UP Over and runs scored shall be calculated as per sub-clause (d) and (c) of clause 4 respectively herein.
 
  1. Not all 6UP Overs may be bowled in a 6UP Match, for various reasons (including weather, bad light, one team is bowled out or one team wins before the allocated overs are completed or any other reason whatsoever). Accordingly, if a 6UP Over is not bowled in the innings, this shall result in the entry being deemed invalid.
 
  1. If a 6UP Match is completed/abandoned before completing the 6UP Over, in such an event the effect of the validity of the 6UP Over and the entry shall be completed with trailing zeroes. For example, if the runs scored before the early end of the over is “2141”, it shall be accepted as “214100” as a valid 6UP Entry.
 
  1. 6UP is timed as closely as practicable to the actual match timing. A live television broadcast may be slightly delayed to a viewer’s screen. 6UP is not timed to the television or radio broadcast of the match but only to the Live 6UP Match.
