How the Cricket Batting Average and Strike Rate Calculator works
Batting average is runs divided by the number of times the batter was out. Not-out innings add runs but not dismissals, which is why a batter’s average can be higher than their runs per innings.
Strike rate is runs per 100 balls faced. It measures scoring speed, which matters most in limited-overs cricket.
The formula
Worked example
Using the default values shown in the calculator:
| Runs scored | 1245 |
|---|---|
| Innings batted | 32 |
| Not outs | 4 |
| Balls faced | 1380 |
| Fours | 120 |
| Sixes | 22 |
- Dismissals: 32 − 4 = 28.
- Average: 1,245 ÷ 28 = 44.46. Strike rate: 1,245 ÷ 1,380 × 100 = 90.22.
- Boundaries made 120 × 4 + 22 × 6 = 612 runs, 49.2% of the total.
Result:
| Batting average | 44.46 |
|---|---|
| Strike rate | 90.22 |
| Dismissals | 28 |
| Runs from boundaries | 49.2% |
| Balls per innings | 43.1 |
Frequently asked questions
What if the batter has never been out?
The average is undefined, shown as a dash. Scorers list it as “–” until the first dismissal.
What is a good strike rate?
In Test cricket around 50 to 60 is normal. In ODIs, 85 to 100 is good, and in T20, 130 to 150 or more.
