Before the first ball

Toss and openers

Record the toss and pick the opening batters and bowler.

  1. Record the toss

  2. Pick the openers

    Choose the striker and the non-striker.

  3. Pick the opening bowler

    Choose who bowls the first over, and from which end.

  4. Start scoring

    The match is now live and appears in live match lists.

Picked the wrong opener?

Before the first ball, go back and choose again. After balls have been bowled, use Undo or swap strike.

Still stuck? Our team usually replies within 24–48 hours.
