Free Net Run Rate Calculator
Work out a team's NRR for the league table.
What is the Net Run Rate Calculator?
When a cricket league table comes down to net run rate, a lot rides on a number most people can't work out in their head. NRR decides who qualifies when teams are level on points, yet the formula — and the awkward rule about teams being bowled out — trips up even keen fans. This calculator does it exactly right from your figures.
It runs entirely in your browser, so you can settle a standings debate on the spot.

What does this tool do?
You enter the total runs your team has scored and the overs it faced, and the total runs conceded with the overs bowled — across a match or a whole tournament. It computes NRR as your run rate minus the opponents' run rate, to three decimal places. Where a side was bowled out, it uses the full quota of overs as the divisor, exactly as the official rules require.
The result is the same number that orders teams in a league table.

Example
Common use cases
- League organisers — Rank teams level on points.
- Team captains — Know the NRR you need to qualify.
- Fans — Check the table maths for yourself.

Benefits
- The exact number that decides standings.
- Handles the tricky bowled-out rule.
- Works for a match or a full season.
- Free and private.
Tips
- For a league-table NRR, enter cumulative runs and overs across every match, not just one game.
- When a team is all out early, tick the bowled-out box and enter the full quota — this changes the number significantly.
- Remember overs faced and overs bowled can differ; enter each side's figures separately.
- A positive NRR means you score faster than you concede; negative means the reverse.
- To see the NRR you'd need, try different runs/overs figures for an upcoming match.
Common mistakes to avoid
Using actual overs when a side is all out
Fix: The full quota is the divisor for a bowled-out team — tick the box and enter it.
Mixing up faced and bowled overs
Fix: Enter your overs faced and the opponents' overs bowled separately; they're often different.
Calculating per match then averaging
Fix: NRR uses cumulative totals, not an average of per-match rates — enter season totals.
Rounding too early
Fix: Keep full figures; NRR is compared to three decimals and small differences decide places.
How it works
- 1
Enter your side's figures
Runs scored and overs faced.
- 2
Enter the opponents'
Runs conceded and overs bowled.
- 3
Read the NRR
The exact net run rate, to three decimals.
Frequently asked questions
NRR = (total runs scored ÷ total overs faced) − (total runs conceded ÷ total overs bowled), across all matches. This tool does exactly that from your cumulative figures.
If a side is all out before using its full overs, the full quota of overs (e.g. 20 or 50) is used as the divisor, not the overs actually faced. Tick the box and enter the quota to apply this.
Yes — enter the cumulative runs and overs across all your matches to get the season NRR that decides league standings.

Conclusion
Get the exact net run rate that orders a league table — including the full-quota rule when a side is bowled out — from your cumulative runs and overs. Enter season totals, apply the bowled-out box correctly, and you'll know precisely where a team stands.
