What The Six-Over Block Covers
Limited-overs cricket gives you a fixed window, six overs of fielding restrictions at the start of each innings, and that window is what the whole category is built on. You can take a view on total powerplay runs against a line, on wickets falling inside the block, or on how one over plays out. BPL nights and international fixtures usually carry both
innings, so you can look at the chase before a ball is bowled. Every market settles on the tournament scorecard, so the number on the broadcast is the number we settle on. Nothing to argue about afterwards.
- Total powerplay runs against a line
- Wickets lost inside the first six
- Single-over lines inside the block
- Both innings on most fixtures
