How the Net Run Rate (NRR) Calculator works
Net run rate is the average runs per over you scored minus the average runs per over scored against you, across all matches in the tournament. Add up all runs and all overs before dividing.
Under ICC playing conditions, if a team is bowled out before its overs are used up, it is treated as having faced its full quota of overs. That rule is applied here with the all-out options.
For a tournament, enter the totals of runs and overs from every match. Matches with no result are normally left out; check the competition’s rules.
The formula
Worked example
Using the default values shown in the calculator:
| Runs scored | 312 |
|---|---|
| Overs faced (completed) | 50 |
| Extra balls faced | 0 |
| Were you all out? | No |
| Runs conceded | 280 |
| Overs bowled (completed) | 48 |
| Extra balls bowled | 2 |
| Was the opponent all out? | Yes, all out |
| Overs per innings (quota) | 50 |
- Run rate for: 312 ÷ 50 = 6.240.
- The opponent was all out in 48.2 overs, so 50 overs count: 280 ÷ 50 = 5.600.
- NRR = 6.240 − 5.600 = 0.640.
Result:
| Net run rate | 0.640 |
|---|---|
| Run rate scored | 6.240 |
| Run rate conceded | 5.600 |
| Overs counted for you | 50.000 |
| Overs counted against you | 50.000 |
Frequently asked questions
Why did our NRR fall even though we won?
NRR depends on the margin and the speed of the win. A narrow win, or a slow chase that used most of the overs, can lower your average if it is below your earlier rate.
How are part overs counted?
Each ball is one sixth of an over, so 48.2 overs counts as 48.333.
