Tip-Top, the highly popular street game, which will be used to decide the toss winners right throughout the ISPL, involves two players standing at a particular point, facing up against each other before they make their way close to one another, with every step touching heel-to-toe. The only way to win the Tip-Top street game is for a player to step on the foot of his or her opponent at the very end.
Just like the Tip-Top toss, the Indian Street Premier League also has yet another exciting provision called the 9-street runs. If the batter manages to hit a ball that crosses the fence before going directly into the audience, then, it will be counted as nine runs to their and the team’s score.
