222bdt: Common Questions
Choose the question that matches your task. Game examples, account actions and the role of this website are separate subjects.
Why is the target 171 after 170?
The chasing side must exceed 170 to win outright; 170 would level the totals in the simple example.
Is current run rate the rate still needed?
No. Current rate summarizes runs already scored per over. Required rate divides runs still needed by overs remaining.
Do wides use up one of the six legal balls?
No. A wide can add a run, but it does not count as a legal delivery in the six-ball over.
