How Cricket scoring works
Runs are scored when both batters swap positions by running between the wickets; each completed exchange is worth 1 run. A ball struck to the boundary scores 4 runs (along the ground) or 6 runs (in the air without bouncing). Extra runs (extras) are awarded to the batting side for certain bowling faults such as a wide or a no-ball. A team's score is shown as runs scored and wickets lost (e.g. 250/4).
Match format
The format sets the length: a Test can last up to 5 days with two innings per side; an ODI is 50 overs per side; a T20 is 20 overs. Many club or amateur formats also exist (limited overs or timed). Always confirm the format before playing, as the number of overs and side rules depend on it.
How to win
The team with the higher total of runs wins the match. If the totals are exactly level, the result is a tie or a draw, and some competitions use a Super Over to break the tie per their regulations.
Recommended Score Zen setup
In Score Zen, set up cricket using points scoring to track each team's runs; use the Official preset for a set-overs format (T20, ODI) and the Casual preset for a simplified club game. Set the target or number of innings according to the chosen format.
