Example game of Cricdice walkthrough!

Picking the XI players!

IMG-0145.jpg

Choosing XI players for a game of Cricdice.

It is best for both players to write down their team of XI players in the batting order they want before the ‘coin toss’ takes place.

We find it most fun to pick a mixture of international players, celebrities, family, and friends!

I allowed 2 lines on the page for each batsman so that there is space to count their runs. XI players fit perfectly on the A5 pad as shown on the picture to the left.

We named our teams for fun at the top of the page.

The Cup Holders

Here is the second players team; also with 2 lines per batsman and written in the order they will bat in.

Once both teams have been written down, it is time to roll the dice and see who will choose whether to bat or bowl first.

For the most realistic T20
score, use the dice in the
order as shown in the image
on the right!

The game uses some simple mathematics to calculate an estimation for the average score to make the final score close to real life.

You are free to deviate from this of course and choose whichever colour of dice suits you for each batsman! If you think that Jos Buttler should open the batting with a yellow dice because the yellow dice hits a 6 for both a 19 and 20 when rolled then go ahead!

I plan to release updates in the future to make the scores even more realistic!

Roll the dice to bowl a ball and play a shot!

Look up the result of the ball. How many runs were there? Was there a wicket?

White dice with a roll of 16 is 3 runs! We can see in the table on the gameboard.

Black dice with a roll of 6 is not a wicket! 1 is a wicket when bowling at a white dice batsman as shown in the bowler box.All other numbers are not a wicket and don’t do anything.

Both score the outcome on your piece of A5 paper.

Here is the way I have found easiest to score for the bowling!

I’ve scored the first ball as 3 runs.

I use the following columns:

Bowler name
Runs scored for each ball
Runs scored off over
Total score

Keeping track of the total score on paper has helped solved some disputes! For example there was one time the batsman forgot to keep score on the game board, but luckily the bowler was keeping score on their pad of paper.

Here is the way I have found easiest to score for the batting!

I break the names up into rows allocating 2 lines per batsman. I then use the space on the right hand side to score the amount of runs that batsman has scored each ball.

I find the easiest way to keep track of the total score is to move the counter on the batting side of the board every 6 balls (at the end of each over)

Feel free to adapt this to the way that you find easiest and most effective to score.

Roll again and repeat this process until 10 wickets have been taken or until 120 balls have been bowled! The winner is the person who scores the most runs at the end of their 20 overs. Although my Mother insists that we are all winners…

A high scoring powerplay with the score 67/1 after 6 overs (36 balls). A score this large in the powerplay will only happen in approximately 1 out of 3 matches.

That’s the entire match! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy playing Cricdice as much as I have done during the test-phase of this game.
