The Total Sixes market is one of the most entertaining markets in cricket betting. Instead of focusing on runs or match winners, this market asks a simple question: How many sixes will be hit in the match?
The market is clean, simple, and perfect for bettors who understand batting styles, pitch behavior and how teams accumulate runs.
WHAT THE MARKET MEANS
Total Sixes = total number of sixes hit by both teams combined in the match (from the first ball to the last ball).
Msport will present a line such as Over 14.5: You are betting that 15 or more sixes will be hit in the match.
Under 14.5: You are betting that 14 or fewer sixes will be hit in the match.
Please note that the exact number varies by matches.
WHEN THE BET WINS OR LOSES
| Total sixes in match | Over 14.5 (1.85) | Under 14.5 (1.85) |
| 0 – 14 sixes | | |
| 15 or more sixes | | |
Note: The market counts all sixes hit in the match, across both innings/teams and including extras resulting from sixes (if any). Half-line (8.5) prevents ties.
Example Scenario
Match type: ODI.
Final sixes: Team A = 9 sixes, Team B = 8 sixes → Total = 17 sixes.
Over 14.5 wins (because 17 ≥ 14).
Under 14.5 loses.
If final total had been 14 sixes, Under 14.5 would win and Over 14.5 would lose.

THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE BETTING
1. Match Format
T20: Most sixes — Over is more likely.
ODI: Moderate — depends on overs remaining and team approach.
Test: Rare to reach high six counts unless aggressive batting occurs.
2. Team Batting Style & Lineups
Teams with big hitters and power-hitting finishers increase Over chances.
If both sides have conservative or weak sloggers, Under becomes safer.
3. Pitch & Ground Size
Small boundaries + flat pitch = more sixes.
Large grounds or sticky pitches reduce big hitting.
4. Weather & Conditions
Wind direction and humid air can help the ball carry further.
Overcast/swing conditions often favour bowlers.
5. Toss & Match Situation
Chasing teams in T20s often need boundaries — more sixes.
If early wickets fall, teams may switch to defensive play.
6. Head-to-Head & Venue History
Check past matches at the ground for average sixes per game.
Some stadiums consistently produce boundary-heavy matches.
BET TIPS
For value on Over: look for T20 matches with small boundaries, aggressive top-orders, and two teams that both play big shots.
For a safer Under play: target Tests or ODIs on bowler-friendly pitches, or matches where both sides rely on rotation rather than power hitting.
KEY REMINDER
This market counts total sixes in the entire match (both teams).
Sixes in practice, warm-ups, or exhibition do not count, only official match play.
Settlement rules (ties or abandoned matches) follow Msport’s official betting rules. kindly check T&Cs or reach our customer support team if a match is abandoned.
HAVE FUN BETTING!!!
