Valhalla, Floki’s PlayToEarn Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) blockchain game, has teamed up with the Hong Kong International Cricket Sixes as its official partner, marking the much-anticipated return of the tournament after a seven-year break.

From November 1 to November 3, top international teams will face off in this fast-paced cricket format at the Tin Kwong Road Recreation Ground.

The Cricket Sixes has been a celebrated event since its debut in 1992, with legendary players like Sachin Tendulkar, MS Dhoni, Shane Warne, and Sanath Jayasuriya gracing the field over the years.

Valhalla’s partnership with the Sixes reflects the synergy between competitive sports and the blockchain gaming world.

“We are thrilled to be part of the Hong Kong International Cricket Sixes. The excitement and energy of this iconic event resonate with our own commitment to innovation and community in gaming,” said Mr. Brown Whale, Valhalla’s lead. “This collaboration allows us to engage with cricket fans and show how PlayToEarn gaming can elevate both entertainment and the spirit of competition.”

The matches will be broadcast across multiple regions by Star Sports Network, and in India, viewers can catch the action on Fancode, one of the country’s largest sports OTT platforms.

On the ground, key branding assets will include ground perimeter boards, mid wicket logo mats, and the presentation backdrop, ensuring strong visibility for both Valhalla and the Sixes event.

This year’s tournament will feature 12 teams divided into four groups. In Group C, India, led by stars like Robin Uthappa and Kedar Jadhav, will face off against Pakistan and the UAE.

Group A includes South Africa, New Zealand, and host nation Hong Kong. Group B brings together Australia, England, and Nepal, while Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Oman make up Group D.
