Required Run Rate Calculator
Enter the target, runs scored so far and overs left to see how many runs per over you need to win.
Quick answer
Target 181, 120 scored, 7.2 overs left: 8.32 per over.
How it is calculated
- Runs needed = target − runs scored = 181 − 120 = 61.
- Balls left: 7.2 overs = 7 × 6 + 2 = 44.
- Required run rate = runs needed ÷ balls left × 6.
Worked example
The target is 181, the team has 120 and 7.2 overs are left. They need 61 off 44 balls, a required run rate of 8.32.
| Target | 181 |
| Runs scored | 120 |
| Overs left (e.g. 7.2) | 7.2 |
| Required run rate | 8.32 |
| Runs needed | 61 |
| Balls left | 44 |
Formula
Required run rate = (Tg-Rn)/balls(Ol)×6 Runs needed = Tg-Rn Balls left = balls(Ol)
Good to know
- The “target” is the score needed to win (opponents’ score + 1).
- In DLS (rain) games the target is set separately.
