Who can score a match?
To score an “Individual Match”, you have to be a team owner or team admin of at least one of the teams. To score a “Tournament Match”, you have to be a tournament scorer.
How do I start a match?
You can start a match when you are on the ground or in advance.
For an individual match, you need to select two teams, respective Playing XI, enter number of overs, location, ground, and type of match. For a tournament match, you need to select “Tournament Name” and round in the first step. Optionally, you can also select Match Officials in the first step.
We are constantly improving this workflow so things may change here and there but it will always be pretty much self-explanatory.
How can I resume a match if it is created in advance?
Just go to Side Menu -> Matches and you should see that match as “Upcoming” in MY MATCHES tab. Just tap on it to resume the match.
Can I leave scoring and resume later on?
Yes, you can. Just click “Back” arrow on top left of the screen to leave scoring. You can resume scoring from Side Menu -> Matches -> My Matches.
How can I resume scoring from another phone?
In case you have to change the phone for scoring in the middle of the match, login to another phone using your registered Mobile Number and OTP (or your PIN in case the original phone is switched off). You can resume scoring by going to Matches -> My Matches -> Tap the match. It will give you an option to “Resume Scoreboard”, just tap on that. Don’t forget to logout from the original phone.
My phone got switched off during scoring. What should I do?
Don’t worry, we have your back! Login to another phone using your Registered Mobile Number and your PIN (as OTP won’t work now). You can resume scoring by going to Matches -> My Matches -> Tap the match. It will give you an option to “Resume Scoreboard”, just tap on that.
Can I change the overs after the match has started?
Yes, you can if you are still in the first innings. You cannot make the overs less than the number of overs already played, for e.g. if one team has already played 14 overs in a 16 over match, you cannot reduce overs to 12 but you can make it 15 overs match.
Can I replace the bowler of current over in case of injury?
Yes, you can. Just go to
“Settings” on the scoring screen and tap on
“Replace Bowler”. If the bowler has not bowled any ball, he will simply be replaced by a new bowler. If he has bowled 2 balls, rest 4 will be counted in the new bowlers’ stats.
What if I have selected wrong batter by mistake?
No worries. Go to “Change batter” in “Settings” menu in scoring. Select the batter you want to change with a new batter.
Can I change the strike manually?
Absolutely. This is extremely important for our gully cricket! :)
So if you have rules like 1 run declare (dic!), just tap 1 run and change the strike manually by tapping the batter’s name.
How do I go to Full Scoreboard while I am scoring?
Just go to Settings -> Full Scoreboard.
What is “CricHeroes” in the full scoreboard?
After every match, 3 CricHeroes of the match are automatically calculated by the app - Player of the Match, Best batter and Best Bowler. These CricHeroes are shown under the “CricHeroes” tab along with the Full Scoreboard after the match is over.
How do you decide CricHeroes of the match?
The app decides that using a very simple algorithm based on statistics, for e.g. number of runs scored in number of balls, number of wickets taken in number of over, etc.
In most cases, you will find these CricHeroes accurate but sometimes, you may feel that someone else could have been the CricHero, for e.g. someone scored runs or took wickets in tense situation. As you can imagine, the app is unable to take such situations in consideration while calculating the CricHeroes.
Can I change CricHeroes manually?
Not for an individual match as we don’t want favouritism to prevail. If you are scoring tournament match, you can change it.
Can I share CricHeroes on my Facebook, WhatsApp?
Absolutely, that is why they are there! Share yours and others’ achievements on such social media apps and be recognised or give recognition to our local heroes.
I can’t see the match I created recently?
Did you create it for testing? Just to see the features of the app? Well, thank you but we do delete such matches on a regular basis to keep CricHeroes clean.
