Cricket statistics


  • Innings (I): The number of innings in which the batsman actually batted.
  • Not outs (NO): The number of times the batsman was not out at the conclusion of an innings they batted in.1
  • Runs (R): The number of runs scored.
  • Highest Score (HS/Best): The highest score ever made by the batsman.
  • Batting Average (Ave): The total number of runs divided by the total number of innings in which the batsman was out. Ave = Runs/[I - NO] (also Avge or Avg.)
  • Centuries (100): The number of innings in which the batsman scored one hundred runs or more.
  • Half-centuries (50): The number of innings in which the batsman scored fifty to ninety-nine runs (centuries do not count as half-centuries as well).
  • Balls Faced (BF): The total number of balls received, including no balls but not including wides.
  • Strike Rate (SR): The number of runs scored per 100 balls faced. (SR = [100 * Runs]/BF)
  • Run Rate (RR): Is the number of runs a batsman (or the batting side) scores in an over of six balls.
The basic bowling statistics include:
  • Overs (O): The number of overs bowled.
  • Balls (B): The number of balls bowled. Overs is more traditional, but balls is a more useful statistic because the number of balls per over has varied historically.
  • Maiden Overs (M): The number of maiden overs (overs in which the bowler conceded zero runs) bowled.
  • Runs (R): The number of runs conceded.
  • Wickets (W): The number of wickets taken.
  • No balls (Nb): The number of no balls bowled.
  • Wides (Wd): The number of wides bowled.
