Cricket Batting Average Calculator

Understand Your Cricket Batting Average in Seconds

Whether you’re an amateur cricketer or a stat-loving fan, knowing your batting average helps track performance. This simple tool calculates your average instantly, helping you assess form, consistency, and overall contribution with the bat.

Batting average is calculated using a very straightforward formula:
Batting Average = Total Runs Scored / Number of Times Out

This means if a batter scores 500 runs over 20 innings and is dismissed 15 times, their average is 500 ÷ 15 = 33.33. The higher, the better.

The Batting Average Calculator is placed right at the top of this page — just after the title. This way, you can start calculating right away before diving into the deeper tips and analysis below.

Batting average shows how many runs a player typically scores before getting out. It’s a key indicator of reliability and skill, especially in test and one-day formats where longevity at the crease is crucial.

In test cricket, an average above 50 is exceptional. In ODIs, anything above 40 is impressive. For club or amateur players, even a 30+ average is solid. This calculator helps you track improvement over time.

Use this calculator to log runs from different tournaments, seasons, or phases of your career. Whether you’re calculating your club cricket stats or comparing your IPL average, this tool gives instant clarity.

This tool is also useful for coaches, team selectors, and cricket analysts. Quickly compute and compare averages across players, matches, or even innings breakdowns, without manually doing the math each time.

While strike rate shows how quickly a player scores (especially important in T20s), batting average shows consistency. A player might have a high strike rate but low average. Use both together for full performance insights.

What if the player was not out in an innings?
That inning isn’t counted as a dismissal, so the average becomes higher. Only dismissals are counted in the divisor.

Is batting average useful in T20?
It has less weight compared to strike rate, but still indicates consistency — especially useful for top-order batters.
