Formula and method

Scoring 45 runs from 30 balls gives a strike rate of 150 runs per 100 balls.

Batting strike rate = runs scored × 100 / balls faced

Worked example

Enter these known values and leave the other values blank.

Runs scored
45
Balls faced
30
Runs per 100 balls
150

Assumptions and limitations

  • Use nonnegative whole runs and a positive whole count of balls faced from the scorecard.
  • The calculation is identical for T20, one-day and first-class/Test formats. The selector changes the descriptive rate band only.
  • Rate bands are illustrative groupings, not official performance grades. Match conditions, innings stage and the batter’s role matter.
  • A batter with no balls faced has no defined strike rate. Zero runs from a positive number of balls gives zero.

Common questions

Can a strike rate exceed 100?

Yes. It is runs per 100 balls, not the percentage of balls on which a run was scored.

References

Bookify accepts zero runs from a positive number of balls.
