If a bowler bowls a wide or a no ball, it is counted as an extra and it has to be re-bowled.Īs a bowler, you'll have to get wickets. An over is completed when a bowler bowls six legal deliveries. A one day match has 50 overs per inning while a T20 match has 20 overs.Īn over is a collection of deliveries that a bowler bowls.
In international cricket, there are 90 overs that should be bowled in a day for a five-day match.
In fact, Woolmer learnt from Pollock's and Ford's(?) mistake. Vinod - I don't think Woolmer bungled for SA in 2003, he was their coach only upto 1999. And I can understand why D/L is so complicated, maybe our quantitative skills will me matched only by Anil Kumble (who is an engineer), yet the bloody rule is difficult to fathom, forget calculate. I guess that's why you have stolen a march over your fellow-bloggers, you really get into the thick of things.
Cricket scoring for dummies update#
I am just curious and waiting for cricinfo to update their points table to see what happens. So, the questions are 1) What is SL's run rate in this game? Would it be 318/50 = 6.36? 3) If Bangladesh was not bowled out and they played 46 overs, what would their RR be for points table calculations? Their total/46? 3) More importantly, what is Bangladesh's run rate give they were bowled out? Is it 112/46 or 112/50? It could be unfair on SL to count only 46 overs because it helps their NRR to calculate based on 50 overs (which would have been the case for bowling out Bdesh without rain). But Bangladesh was bowled out in 37 overs. Rain interrupted Bdesh innings and their target was revised to 312 in 46 overs. In a game where targets are adjusted, do the adjusted tagets apply for both teams? For example, today the SL-Bdesh match. I am still confused about the NRR calculations though. Its an extremely complicated system but I think it works well, especially when one compares it to the lousy 1992 rain rules.

Yeah, its not without a reason that a professional South African team under the computer-guru and now 'late' Bob Woolmer bungled up in the previous World cup on D/L.
