How the figures are counted

Average. For a batter, runs divided by the number of times dismissed; a batter who is never dismissed has no average. For a bowler, runs conceded divided by wickets taken. A lower bowling average is better.

Strike rate. Runs scored per hundred balls faced. A wide is not a ball faced by the batter.

Economy rate. Runs conceded per six legal balls. Wides and no-balls are charged to the bowler, byes and leg byes are not.

Overs. An over is six legal deliveries. Wides and no-balls are extra deliveries, so an over in the records can hold more than six balls, and a part-over is written as 12.4 for twelve overs and four balls.

Wickets. A dismissal. Run outs, retirements, obstructing the field and similar dismissals count against the batting side but are not credited to the bowler.

Fours and sixes. Counted when the ball crosses the boundary off the bat. Runs that were run for four are not counted as a boundary.

Hundreds and fifties. Counted per innings. In a Test, two innings by one batter are two separate scores.

Dot balls and maidens. A dot ball is a legal delivery on which the bowler conceded no run. A maiden is a complete over with none conceded.

Win rate. Wins divided by matches that produced a winner. Ties, draws and matches without a result are shown separately and left out of the percentage.

Tie, draw and no result. A tie is level scores with the match complete. A draw is a Test that ends with neither side having won. No result means the match could not be finished. A match decided by a tie-break counts as a tie for the record, and the result line names the side that won the tie-break.

Seasons. A competition that runs across calendar years is grouped by the season label in the records, so one tournament can appear under more than one season, and a season still in progress is partial.

Highest and lowest totals. The lowest completed total counts only innings in which the side was bowled out.

Toss. Where the record names the toss winner and the decision, the page reports how often that side chose to bat or field and how often it won the match.

Scorecards. Every Test match, every One Day International and Twenty20 International since 2024, and every match of Nepal, between sides that have a team page.

Player pages. Players with at least 150 recorded matches in all competitions in the records. Figures are for the matches in the records only, not complete careers.

Ground pages. Grounds with at least 60 recorded matches.

Head-to-head pages. Pairs of national men's sides with at least 10 recorded meetings.

Records. Lists over every recorded match of the format, not only the matches that have a scorecard page.

Where the data comes from. The open Cricsheet match records, licensed under the Open Data Commons Attribution License v1.0, up to 2026-10-14. A match that is missing from that dataset is missing here.

A scorecard lists the batters in the order they came to the crease, with the runs and balls of each, the fours and sixes, and how the innings ended: bowled, caught, lbw, run out or stumped, with the bowler and the fielder. Extras are the runs that did not come off the bat: byes, leg byes, wides, no-balls and penalty runs.

The fall of wickets gives the team score and the over at which each batter was out, and the bowling table gives overs, maidens, runs, wickets and economy for each bowler. In a Test the same table repeats for the second innings, and in a limited-overs match the strip of bars shows the runs scored in each over, with a slanted strike across the over in which a wicket fell.
