About Test Twenty

Built for the next generation (13–19)

What it is

A new “middle-form” cricket experience: not as long as Test, not as momentary as T20.
World’s first single-day 80-over format played as 4 innings of 20 overs.
Played in India with six franchises and one champion.

Backed by legends

A B de Villiers
Matthew Hayden
Sir Clive Lloyd
Harbhajan Singh

Founded by Gaurav Bahirvani.

The Format

Strategy of Tests × intensity of T20

80 overs in a day, broken into 4 innings × 20 overs.
Creates multiple “mini-matches” inside a single game.
Rewards consistency, adaptability, and tactical depth.

The Rules

Simple, sharp, spectator-friendly

Four innings structure keeps momentum high.
Score pressure builds across innings, not just overs.
Designed for clear outcomes and competitive balance.

Win/Loss/Tie/Draw dynamics can be built into league points.
Powerplay and tactical phases can be adapted per innings.
Ideal for both player development and scouting.

(Rules can be updated to match the official rulebook once finalised.)
