Max60 Caribbean Season 2: Format, Rules & What’s New

The fast-evolving world of short-format cricket has found its latest hit in Max60 Caribbean Season 2. Designed for fans who crave action-packed matches and bold innovation, the Max60 format compresses all the thrills of T20 cricket into just 60 balls per innings.

As Season 2 unfolds from July 16 to July 23, cricket lovers across the globe—and especially in South Asia—are tuning in to see how this high-octane league reinvents the way we experience the game. Here’s a detailed look at the Max60 Caribbean Season 2 format, the new rules in Max60 2025, and how it stands out in the Caribbean cricket T10 format landscape.

What Is the Max60 Format?

At its core, Max60 is a 60-ball-per-side cricket format, similar in length to a T10 match but with unique twists. Each game lasts roughly 90 minutes, making it ideal for evening entertainment, online streaming, or back-to-back viewing sessions.

Basic Structure:

• Innings: 60 legal deliveries per team (10 overs)
   
• Overs per Bowler: Usually capped between 2 and 4 overs, depending on strategy
   
• Duration: Entire match wraps up in ~90 minutes
   
• Powerplay: Typically first 2 or 3 overs (exact structure may vary per team)
   

This fast, time-efficient structure gives players minimal room for error—and maximum incentive to take risks.

New Rules in Max60 2025

While the base rules of Max60 remain similar to T10 cricket, the league has introduced custom gameplay features to spice things up. Here’s what’s new and exciting this season:

1. The Max Zone

A designated hitting area in the stadium where shots earn double runs.

• If a batter hits the ball into this zone, it’s not just a boundary—it’s a bonus.
   
• A standard six could become 12 runs, depending on placement and delivery type.
   

2. Free Hit Bonuses

• Every no-ball or wide not only results in a free hit but also activates Max Zone multipliers.
   
• Encourages bowlers to stay sharp and penalises undisciplined deliveries.
   

3. Strategic Timeouts

• Teams are allowed brief timeouts to regroup and set up strategies, especially in crunch overs.
   
• Brings a tactical layer to an otherwise chaotic format.
   

4. Flexible Batting Order

• Some teams are using a floating batting order, swapping power hitters based on field placements or bowlers in play.
   

These new rules in Max60 2025 are crafted to increase unpredictability and elevate entertainment—making the league truly stand out among Caribbean cricket T10 formats.
