A cricket tournament with only 6 players per team and limited to using 50% of the ground, focusing on front-foot shots, here’s how you can set it up:

### Key Rules:

1. **Team Size**: Each team has 6 players.

2. **Ground Usage**: Only 50% of the ground will be used. You can mark off an area, restricting field placements and limiting the range for boundary scoring.

3. **Front-Foot Play**: Players can only play front-foot shots. Any back-foot shots will be considered invalid (e.g., dot ball or penalty).

4. **Match Length**: 8 overs per side.

5. **Bowling**: Each bowler can bowl a maximum of 2 overs.

6. **Boundaries**: Boundaries can be adjusted within the half-ground area to make scoring competitive but challenging.

### Fielding Restrictions:

- Given the smaller playing area, you can limit the number of fielders allowed outside a designated "inner circle."

- Alternatively, only 1 or 2 fielders can stand in deep positions within the half-ground.

### Scoring System:

- Since the ground area is smaller, it might be useful to adjust boundary distances.

- A front-foot shot that clears a boundary in this half-ground setup could count as 4 or 6 runs, depending on the boundary length.

This format encourages strategic front-foot play, sharp fielding, and a more condensed, intense game atmosphere.
