## The easiest way to track cricket standings

From weekend T20 tournaments to club-level ODI leagues, Simple Standings gives you a clean cricket league table. Track wins, losses, draws, no results, points, and net run rate — then share with your league. It does more than the table, too: tick Schedule to add games with dates, times, and venues that visitors can filter by team, and Statistics to track batting averages, home runs, and RBIs. Enable any combination — all three sit on the same shareable link.

## How cricket standings work

Cricket tables are ranked on points. In limited-overs cricket (T20, 40- or 50-over games) the common system is **2 points for a win, 1 each for a tie or a no result, and 0 for a loss**. A no result (NR) is a game that could not be finished, usually because of weather. Draws only happen in timed or multi-day games, which some club leagues still play and score on their own system.

The tiebreaker is **net run rate** (NRR): the runs a team scores per over, minus the runs it concedes per over, across the whole competition. A team scoring 8.0 an over and conceding 7.5 has an NRR of +0.500. Under the usual playing conditions, a team that is bowled out is counted as having faced its full quota of overs, so being dismissed early costs you.

The one thing that trips everyone up is overs notation. 16.2 overs means 16 overs and 2 balls — 16⅓ overs, or 16.333 — not 16.2. Get that wrong and every NRR in the table is slightly off.

## A worked example

Five teams in a T20 league, single round robin, one game washed out:

| Team | W | L | NR | PTS | NRR |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Kestrels | 3 | 0 | 1 | 7 | +1.245 |
| Mavericks | 3 | 1 | 0 | 6 | +0.636 |
| Pioneers | 2 | 2 | 0 | 4 | −0.120 |
| Rangers | 1 | 2 | 1 | 3 | −0.310 |
| Tigers | 0 | 4 | 0 | 0 | −1.380 |

The washed-out game, Kestrels against Rangers, earned each side a point. That point is the difference between Kestrels and Mavericks, who have the same three wins.

Mavericks’ NRR, worked out: they scored 640 runs from 78.4 overs (78⅔ overs, because they won two chases with balls to spare), which is 8.136 an over, and conceded 600 runs from a full 80 overs, which is 7.500. 8.136 − 7.500 = +0.636.

## Common cricket tiebreakers

When teams finish level, these are applied in order until the tie is broken:

1. **Number of wins.**
2. **Net run rate.**
3. **Head-to-head** result.
4. **Drawing of lots**, if all else is equal.

## How cricket seasons are scheduled

- **Weekend club leagues** with one game per team per weekend, a single or double round robin across the summer.
- **Groups, then knockouts**: two groups play a round robin, and the top two from each go to semifinals.
- **Reserve days** for knockout games, so weather does not decide a final.
- **Divisions** by level, with promotion and relegation between seasons.

## Setting up cricket standings in Simple Standings

Pick Cricket when you create a league and the standings start from the Simple preset — W, L, D, and PTS — or from Advanced: W, L, D, NR, PTS, and NRR. New cricket leagues sort by PTS. Every column can be renamed, removed, or added to. A computed column can read every typed-in column, plus any computed column to its left.

Points are `W × 2 + NR` as a computed column (add `+ D` if you play timed games with draws). NRR can be computed too, if you keep four number columns — runs scored, overs faced, runs conceded, overs bowled — and enter overs as true decimals (78.667, not 78.4). Then NRR is `RS / OF − RC / OB`.

Box scores come set up for one innings a side, with wickets and overs beside each total. The statistics table starts with batting columns; rename or replace them with runs, balls, wickets and economy to suit your league.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I create cricket standings?

Sign up for a free account, click "Create new", choose your columns (wins, losses, points, etc.), add your teams, and type in the data. No spreadsheets or imports needed.

### Can I share my cricket standings with others?

Yes. Every standings you create gets a unique shareable link. Anyone with the link can view the standings — no account required.

### Can I make a cricket schedule too?

Yes. Check Schedule when creating and add games with dates, times, venues, and scores. Visitors can filter the schedule by team or venue, so each team sees only their own games.

### Can I track cricket stats?

Yes. Check Statistics when creating and you get a stats table with the columns already prefilled for cricket — batting averages, home runs, and RBIs. Add computed columns for anything you work out with a formula, and sort by whichever column matters.

### Is Simple Standings free for cricket leagues?

Free — standings, schedule, and statistics with no team limits, no game caps, and a public share link included. Public pages carry ads, which is what pays for it; a one-time $9.99 USD removes them from a league, with no subscription and no renewal.

### Do cricket scores automatically update the standings?

Only if you want them to. Typing the table in yourself is the default, and it is what most leagues stick with — no syncing, no broken formulas. You can also enter one game at a time and let it do the arithmetic, report a score and have the standings update themselves, or keep a full box score for each game that updates the standings and every player's totals at once.
