Stage 1 Junior CricketBasic Scoring Workshop

An introduction to scoring a Stage 1 Junior Cricket match under Cricket Australia’s Junior Cricket Pathways

Reflecting MCC Laws effective October 2017SIJCC – Stage 1 Scoring Workshop – September 2018

Stage 1 – Points for Scorers• Bowling from one end of the pitch only

o game is faster and scorers need to follow more action closely

o less time between overs as only batters swap ends (not fielders, but they may rotate position)

• umpires also swap between bowler’s end wicket and square leg and vice versa

• Prescribed quota of deliveries to be faced by each battero scorers need to keep track of batter deliveries received and try to inform umpires/coaches

when batters are a few balls before their deliveries quota and also when they reach their limit

o depending on the number of players on the day, there may be deliveries remaining once all batters have received their full quota so the last batting pair faces any remaining deliveries

• Multiple wickets allowedo scorers need to track who is out and check off wickets tally (optional: how out and fielder)

o batters swap ends after a wicket falls so scorers must follow who is on strike

o batters stay “in” for their quota so less extra “walking on/off the field” time when wickets fall

• Bowling team gets 4 runs per wicket added to their batting scoreo different scoring method to traditional “out means out” cricket

o calculation of final score/result could hinge on the very last ball

2SIJCC – Stage 1 Scoring Workshop – September 2018

Duties of a Scorer• ACCEPT – The scorer must accept the signals given to them by the

umpires (even if you think the umpire is wrong)

• ACKNOWLEDGE – The scorer must clearly and promptly

acknowledge each of the umpires signals. Keep the signal simple

– just raising one arm above your head is sufficient

• RECORD – The scorer must record all details of the match. All runs

scored, all wickets taken, all overs bowled. Always write neatly

and clearly

• CHECK – The scorers should check often with each other to

ensure their records agree


Communication

• Scorer to scorer – regular score check (each over)

Scorers

Coaches

Umpires

• Scorer to coaches – player list pre game and confirm players during play – inform when batters are close to or have reached quota of deliveries

• Scorer to umpires – acknowledge signals, check records at intervals


Scorers ‘Kit’• Scorebook/sheet, notepad, tablet, smartphone, laptop PC…

o Don’t forget if scoring electronically to have devices fully charged before match and to carry spare battery powerbanks for recharging etc. (and always have paper backup)

• Pencil(s), sharpener, eraser, ruler, pens (fine tip), correction fluid

• Timing device(s) (e.g. watch, mobile phone, etc…)

• Calculator (e.g. smartphone)

• Comfortable chair (& table) – gazebo/shade/shelter also a pluso Hat, protective clothing, sunscreen, sunglasses, umbrella, raincoat, water, coffee

• ‘Blue Book’ (NSJCA Competition rules – match format details)

• Cricket Australia’s Junior Stage 1 mobile app – phone/tablet

• MCC Laws of Cricket (October 2017)

How to set up a Stage 1 game

https://community.cricket.com.au/clubs/junior-formats/frequently-asked-questions


7

Handy HintDIY boundary & crease measure

• Get an inexpensive 40m length of rope or cord• From one end measure 14.8m (popping crease) and 16.0m

(bowling crease) and mark off both with electrical tape etc• On a synthetic pitch, place a set of metal/spring stumps on

one of the already marked wickets holes (i.e. where wooden stumps would normally be hammered in), and from there measure the 16.0m pitch length out to the opposite (shortened) bowling crease (i.e. where the other set of metal/spring stumps will be placed) and then measure back in 1.2m (i.e. 14.8m) to mark the (shortened) popping crease

• Use jumbo chalk to mark the respective creases clearly – and as a courtesy (and also in order to avoid confusion), please scrub/brush out the chalk after the match given other games may follow on the same day but use different pitch lengths (please do not use a white spray can to mark crease lines)

• Using the full 40m length of rope/cord, have one person hold one end at the batter’s end stumps, and another walk toward the outfield holding the other end of the rope/cord and boundary marking cones, and with the largest possible boundary radius up to the 40m maximum, place the cones evenly spaced in an arc (each team should contribute half the cones so as to mark the full boundary)

Dead ball to be re-bowled if the ball was signaled “dead ball” before a legal delivery was bowled

(see below)

Note: Some scorers may use different scoring symbols from those shown here. The key point is for the scorebook to show consistent scoring symbols throughout the innings, so the person who enters the score into MyCricket(when applicable) is able to interpret the scorebook details.


*R = runout

Arm held still out to side

Index finger pointing up

Arm moving horizontally

stopping on chestPalm is flat and open

Cross arms in front left to right and

back a few times

Cross hands across shoulders

Recording runs and wickets• “Wide” + ‘plus’ symbol

o no contact with the bat

o add “dots” in corners for number of Bye / Leg

bye runs – top left to bottom right

o add “W” in top right corner for wicket if batter

stumped or run out off a wide (yes, it’s possible)

• “Bye” B or up ‘triangle’ = 1 bye


o B for 1 bye or 3B = 3 byes etc.

o add “dots” or numerals for additional bye runs

• hint: write dots first then draw triangle

• “Leg bye” L or ‘triangle’ down = 1 leg bye


o L for 1 leg bye or 2L = 2 leg byes etc.

o add “dots” or numerals for additional leg byes

• hints: write dots first then draw triangle

• downward triangle points to “leg”

Batting Analysis: First line for ball-by-ball activity

Second line to record type of wicket (optional)

• “Dot” • ball for zero runs

• 1, 2, 3, 4 (boundary or physical runs),

5 (e.g. 4 overthrows off a single),

6 (boundary) runs as scored (numerals)

• Wicket “W” when credited to the bowler

o Runout “R” - not credited to bowler

• “No Ball” circle

o numeral runs in circle for runs off the bat

• hint: write numbers first then draw circle

o add “dots” for number of Bye / Leg bye runs

At the conclusion of the Match• Make sure BOTH score books match

o Try to trace and fix any differences between scorebooks

o This is why it is important for scorers to constantly check with each other

• Add up all the batters’ scores

• Add up all extraso Byes, Leg Byes, No Balls, Wides

• For each wicket taken during the team’s bowling innings, multiply by 4 runs and add to that team’s total batting runs and extras

• Batters’ runs + extras + (4 x #wickets) = TOTAL SCOREo The team with the highest TOTAL SCORE is the winner of the match


Calculating Team Scores• No runs are deducted from the batter's or the team's score when a wicket is lost.

• Instead, for each wicket the team lost during their batting innings, the bowling (fielding) team is awarded 4

runs/wicket which is added to the their total batting innings score at the end of the match.

• A team's total score is determined by adding:

o runs scored from their batting innings (including all extras: Byes, Leg Byes, No Balls, Wides)

o the number of wickets they took when bowling multiplied by 4 runs per wicket taken

• In sum, the winner is the team with the highest combined total score at the end of the match.

• The team batting second starts with a blank scoresheet. The number of penalty runs they scored as calculated by

the number of wickets they took is only added to their batting score at the END of the match. Similarly, the team

who bowls second also has their penalty runs from wickets taken added to their earlier batting innings score at the

END of the match.

• Example:

• Team "NSJCA Kallis" scores 110 runs while batting (but loses 10 wickets in the process). When they bowl they take 15

wickets. Their team total at the completion of the match is 170 runs, being 110 from their batting innings plus 60

‘wicket’ runs (15 wickets multiplied by 4 runs/wicket) for the wickets taken during their bowling innings.

• Team "NSJCA Smith" bats second and scores 125 runs (but loses 15 wickets, as per above) and took 10 wickets

earlier when bowling. Their total score would be calculated by adding the 125 (from the batting innings) and the 40

‘wicket runs’ (from the bowling innings = 10 wickets @ 4 runs/wicket) giving 165 runs.

• In this example, even though the "Smith" team scored more runs in their batting innings, they took fewer wickets,

and the "Kallis" team thus wins the match as their TOTAL combined score is 170 versus Smith's score of 165.


3-Overs – Two InningsWorked Example

Ball-by-Ball

20


Over 1 – Home 1 Batter on strike / Home 2 Batter at non-striker’s (bowler’s) end / Away 1 Bowler— Dot ball - no run - batters stay put (i.e. same strike)— 1 run - number of runs off the bat go to batter, the same runs against the bowler as runs ceded, and are added to progressive tally - batters have changed strike— 2 runs - same strike— No ball - Umpire signals No ball - batters do not run and stay put (i.e. 1 NB against bowler and added to No ball extras and progressive tally - No balls are not re-bowled)— 3 runs - batters have changed strike— 6 runs - ball clears the boundary on the full - umpire signals Boundary 6

Over 2 - Away 2 Bowler - batters change strike at end of over— 4 runs - ball reaches the boundary but not on the full - Umpire signals Boundary 4 - same strike— 2 byes – i.e. 2 physical runs taken opportunistically but no contact with the bat - Umpire signals Bye (i.e. 2 Byes against Bye extras and progressive tally) - same strike— Wide + another 1 physical run (no bat contact) - Umpire signals Wide (i.e. 2 Wides against bowler and Wide extras and progressive tally) - batters have changed strike— Wicket = Bowled - Umpire signals Out - batters change strike but both stay in (unlimited dismissals means they stay in until reaching their quota of deliveries)— No ball + 2 runs off the bat - Umpire signals No ball (i.e. 1 NB against bowler and No ball extras and 2 runs to batter and against bowler = total 3 runs against bowler and progressive tally) - same strike— Wicket = Caught (WK) - umpire signals Out

Over 3 - Away 3 Bowler - batters change strike (previous ball from last over was a wicket plus it’s the end of the over)— No ball + 2 Bye (physical) runs but no contact with the bat - Umpire signals No ball - Umpire then signals Bye (i.e. 1 NB against bowler and No ball extras + 2 byes to Bye extras = total 3 runs against progressive tally) - same strike— Wide but batsman out of crease and Stumped = Wicket - Umpire signals Wide - Umpire signals Out (i.e. 1 WD against bowler and Wide extras and one against progressive tally but also 1 Wicket) - batters change strike— 3 Leg Byes – i.e. 3 physical runs after ball deflects off pads or body but no contact with the bat - Umpire signals Leg Bye (i.e. 3 against Leg Bye extras and progressive tally) - batters have changed strike— batters complete one run but striker is run out by WK at strikers end wicket before completing second run - Umpire signals Out (i.e. one run to batter and against bowler, and one added to progressive tally but also 1 Wicket = Run Out though not attributed to bowler) - batters change strike— Dot Ball - no run - same strike— striker skies a high ball and batters cross for one run and are coming back for the second run when Caught - no runs (irrespective of whether batters crossed or not) -Wicket - Umpire signals Out

Home team (batted first) has not bowled yet so need to

return here to the TOTAL SCORE calculation after completion of 2nd innings and reflect wickets

taken.

• Batter 1 (Home 1) scored: 1 (single) + 6 + 1 (then run out) = 8 runs total from 7 balls faced – stats include zero “4” and one “6” boundaries and two times “out”

• Batter 2 (Home 2) scored: 2 + 3 + 4 + 2 (off the bat off a no ball) = 11 runs total from 11 balls faced – stats include one “4” and zero “6” boundaries and two times “out”

• Remember no balls, wides, byes and leg byes do not count towards the batter’s score and are marked here mainly to keep track of balls faced

• Away 1: 1+2+1noball+3+6=13 runs for no wickets hence “0 (wkts) / 13 (runs)”

• Away 2: 4+2wides+(1noball+2runs)=9 runs for 2 wickets hence “2 (wkts) / 9 (runs)”

• Away 3: 1noball+1wide+1=3 runs for 2 wickets hence “2 (wkts) / 3 (runs)”

• Remember byes and leg byes do not countagainst the bowler – nor do runout wickets

Over 1 - Away 1 Batter on strike / Away 2 Batter at non-striker’s (bowler’s) end / Home 1 Bowler— 2 runs - same strike— Dot ball - no run - same strike— 3 byes - Umpire signals Bye (i.e. 3 Byes against Bye extras and progressive tally) - batters have changed strike— 1 run - batters have changed strike— Wicket = Caught - Umpire signals Out - batters change strike— No ball - Umpire signals No ball - batters do not run and stay put (i.e. 1 NB against bowler and added to No ball extras and progressive tally - No balls are not re-bowled)

Over 2 – Home 2 Bowler - batters change strike at end of over— Wide + another 3 wide physical runs - Umpire signals Wide (i.e. 4 Wides against bowler and 4 Wide extras and 4 against progressive tally) - batters have changed strike— 3 runs - batters have changed strike— 6 runs - umpire signals Boundary 6 - same strike— Wicket = Caught (WK) - umpire signals Out - batters change strike— 4 runs - Umpire signals Boundary 4 - same strike— Wicket = Bowled - Umpire signals Out

Over 3 – Home 3 Bowler - batters change strike (previous ball from last over was a wicket plus it’s the end of the over)— No ball + 1 Bye run - Umpire signals No ball - Umpire signals Bye (i.e. 1 NB against bowler and No ball extras + 1 bye to Bye extras = total 2 runs against progressive tally) -batters have changed strike— Wide but batsman out of crease and Stumped = Wicket - Umpire signals Wide - Umpire signals Out (i.e. 1 WD against bowler and Wide extras and one against progressive tally but also 1 Wicket) - batters change strike— 1 Leg Bye - Umpire signals Leg Bye (i.e. 1 against Leg Bye extras and progressive tally) - batters have changed strike— batters complete two runs but striker is run out by bowler at non-striker’s end wicket (i.e. bowler end) before completing third run - Umpire signals Out (i.e. two runs to batter and against bowler, and two added to progressive tally but also 1 Wicket = Run Out though not attributed to bowler) - batters might not change strike in this situation as striker already at bowlers end after the Run Out— striker skies a high ball and batters cross on the first run, make their ground, and are considering coming back for the second run when Caught - no runs - Wicket -Umpire signals Out - batters might not change strike again in this situation as striker already at bowlers end when Caught— 2 runs

We already know the Away team took 5 wickets when

bowling in the 1st innings, so we add (5 x 4 = 20) and then calculate TOTAL SCORE = 52

• Batter 1 (Away 1) scored: 2 + 6 = 8 runs total from 10 balls faced – stats include zero “4” and one “6” boundaries and three times “out”

• Batter 2 (Away 2) scored: 1 + 3 + 4 + 2 (then run out) + 2 = 12 runs total from 8 balls faced – stats include one “4” and zero “6” boundaries and three times “out”

• Remember no balls, wides, byes and leg byes do not count towards the batter’s score and are marked here mainly to keep track of balls faced

• Home 1: 2+1+1noball=4 runs for 1 wicket hence “1 (wkts) / 4 (runs)”

• Home 2: 4wides+3+6+4=17 runs for 2 wickets hence “2 (wkts) / 17 (runs)”

• Home 3: 1noball+1wide(stumped)+2+2=6 runs for 2 wickets hence “2 (wkts) / 6 (runs)”

• Remember byes and leg byes do not countagainst the bowler – nor do runout wickets

From the 2nd (Away team’s batting) innings we now know

Home team (batted first) took 6 wickets when bowling, so go

back to their original scoresheet and add (6 x 4 = 24) to calculate TOTAL SCORE = 56

so Home team wins

The Ins and Outs of Cricket• You have two sides, one out in the field and one in.

• Each man that’s in the side that’s in goes out, and when he’s out he comes in and the next man goes in until he’s out.

• When they are all out, the side that’s out comes in and the side that’s been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out.

• Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

• When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in.

• There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out.

• When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!
