According to the Laws of Cricket, the boundary where a rope is used is the inside edge of that rope. A ball that lands directly on the rope will be a six, provided that it only landed on the rope, and didn't touch both the ground inside and the rope at the same time (this would be a four only); this is the ruling used in international games.
The perimeter of the cricket pitch is known as the boundary, if a batsmen hits the ball over this perimeter (usually represented by a line or a rope) they have hit a boundary. If the ball travels over this line without hitting the floor it is a 6 and if it makes contact with the floor before hitting the line it is a 4. Both of these are known as boundarys.
If the ball is hit over the boundary on the full, 6 runs are awarded to the batsman.
