Red Stripe Bowl: What The Rules Say
The Barbados Nation
A team's net run-rate is calculated by deducting from the
average runs per over scored by that team throughout the
competition, the average runs per over scored against the team
throughout the competition.
In the event of a team being bowled out in less than its full
quota of overs, the calculation of its net run-rate shall be
based on the full quota of overs to which it would have been
entitled and not the number of overs in which the team was
dismissed.
For example, in the preliminaries, Barbados, in their three
matches, scored 598 runs off 136 overs. Therefore, their average
runs per over scored was 4.39.
They conceded 527 runs in dismissing their opposition.
Therefore, the average runs scored against them was 3.51.
Therefore, Barbados' net run-rate (4.39 minus 3.51) was 0.88.
