"Cricket doesn't care how old you are. It only asks — how hungry are you?"
— Tournament Motto
About the Tournament

Built for Legends.
Forged in Spirit.

Veteran's Sixes was born from a simple truth — the love of cricket doesn't expire at 40. If anything, it deepens. The rivalries get richer, the camaraderie grows stronger, and the hunger to compete burns even brighter.

Our mission is to build Kerala's most respected veterans cricket platform — an annual institution that celebrates experienced players, honours competitive spirit, and creates a lasting legacy for the game in the community. Starting in 2026 and growing every year.

🤝 Sportsmanship

Fair play on and off the field. The game respects those who respect it.

🔥 Passion

🏋️ Fitness

Proving that 40+ athletes are among the most disciplined in the game.

🌱 Community

Building bonds that go beyond cricket. Family. Friends. Legends.

⚖️ Fairness

Equal opportunity. Transparent rules. Decisions that everyone respects.

🏺 Legacy

Creating something that will be spoken about for years to come.
