Net Run Rate Calculator: NRR Formula

Calculate the Net Run Rate (NRR) for a cricket team.

What is Net Run Rate?

Net Run Rate (NRR) is the primary method used to rank cricket teams with equal points in limited-overs tournaments. It measures the average winning margin.

The NRR Formula

  1. Step 1: Calculate Average Runs Scored = (Total Runs Scored) ÷ (Total Overs Faced).
  2. Step 2: Calculate Average Runs Conceded = (Total Runs Conceded) ÷ (Total Overs Bowled).
  3. Step 3: NRR = Avg Runs Scored - Avg Runs Conceded.
  4. A positive NRR means you score faster than your opponents; negative means the opposite.

Cricket FAQs

How are all-out innings counted?

If a team is bowled out before completing their full quota of overs (e.g., in 40 overs of a 50-over match), the calculation uses the full quota (50 overs) instead of the actual overs faced.
