Net run rate calculator
Club net run rate is runs per over scored minus runs per over conceded. Use decimal overs (4.3 balls = 4.5), and read whether all-out sides are deemed to have faced the full innings.
Enter the totals from the book, not from memory. If a side was bowled out, check the league rule before you reduce overs faced.
This calculator does arithmetic. It does not replace your competition regulations.
FAQ
Questions about this calculator
- 01 Should I type 4.3 or 4.5 for overs?
- Type the balls as decimals of an over: 4 overs and 3 balls is 4.5 for the calculation. Typing 4.3 understates the overs.
- 02 What do I enter if a side was bowled out?
- Check the league rule. Most count the full overs for an all-out side; some use the overs actually bowled.
