CricScoreApp
Live and open for registrationOpen ground cricket, scored properly — not a generic scorer with the wrong rules bolted on.
Live ball-by-ball scoring, full scorecards and complete player stats for the open ground game — a full field and a rope boundary. Free for players, with no login needed to follow a match.
Why the open ground game needed its own scorer
Open ground cricket is scored the way you already call it at the ground — a full field, a rope boundary, and squads that are not always eleven. Generic scorers make you work around their assumptions. This one starts from yours.
Rope boundaries
Fours and sixes come off the rope, scored the way you already call them, rather than inferred from a fixed ground model.
Byes and leg byes kept straight
Both recorded separately and kept off the bowler’s analysis, so the scorecard adds up without anyone doing sums afterwards.
Eight to eleven a side
Overs per innings and squad size are set per tournament, not fixed. Eleven is only the default.
Ball-by-ball truth
Every delivery is stored on its own, so scores, extras and statistics are all derived rather than hand-tallied.
Why it is free for players
Somebody has to pay for a portal like this, and it will not be the players. No player fees, no match fees, and no subscription to look up your own cricket — scorecards and statistics stay open to everyone, with nothing obstructive covering the score while a match is being watched.
The paid edge is narrow and deliberate: organisers who want a private, invite-only competition pay for that option, and there is team merchandise for sides who want it. That is the whole model.
Two formats, one platform
CricScoreApp is for the open ground game. BoxCricScore is for box cricket, where the walls are part of the field of play and scoring works differently.
They share a codebase. The format rules, the branding and the domain differ per product, which meant building a genuinely multi-brand platform rather than forking one and letting the two drift apart. That is the same problem we are usually hired to solve for a client with several brands on one system — we had the incentive to get it right here first.
What it does
Ball-by-ball scoring from a phone
One tap per ball at the ground. Wides, no-balls, free hits and every dismissal type, captured as they happen.
Works without signal
Keep scoring when the network drops. Every ball is queued in order and syncs the moment you reconnect, so nothing is lost and nothing arrives out of sequence.
Live scores with no login
Send one link. Followers watch the score update ball by ball — no app, no account, no limit on how many of them there are.
Overlay for a live stream
Point OBS at a single URL and the live score sits on the broadcast, updating itself.
Tournaments end to end
League and knockout stages, fixtures generated in one go, a points table with net run rate, and qualification odds.
Rules per tournament
Overs, squad size and bonus scoring are set per competition, and players can read them on the tournament page.
Statistics that build themselves
Scorecards, player profiles, the points table and an MVP, all derived from the balls that were scored.
A gallery per tournament
Every tournament keeps its own photos, so the moments from the ground stay attached to the competition.
How it is built
- One platform, two products. CricScoreApp and BoxCricScore run from the same codebase, with the format rules, branding and domain differing per product — which is the same multi-brand problem we solve for clients, solved on our own product first.
- The scoring engine is isolated and independently testable, so each format’s rules live in one place rather than scattered across the interface.
- Live scores are pushed over SignalR rather than polled, keeping every follower’s device current without hammering the server.
- The offline queue preserves ball order rather than just retrying failed requests, because a scorecard that reassembles in the wrong sequence is worse than one that waits.
Who it is for
- Local league and tournament organisers running league or knockout competitions
- Club, village and corporate teams who want their cricket recorded properly
- Players who want full batting and bowling statistics, not just the top of the table
- Spectators and family following a match they cannot attend
- Organisers streaming matches who want a live score overlay on the broadcast
