Hypothetical model only · 1/run + 1/four + 2/six + 25/wicket + 8/catch · Not Dream11 rules
The full practice rules
Base points = runs + fours + 2 × sixes + 25 × wickets + 8 × catches. Boundaries are already included in the run total; the four and six fields add only the stated bonuses. Captain multiplier is applied to the combined base total.
The model intentionally omits ducks, economy, strike rate, milestones, run-outs, appearance points, substitute handling, penalty points and format-specific rules. It cannot reconstruct a settled contest. Read that exact contest’s current published rules before comparing any real outcome.
Enter nonnegative whole numbers. Four- and six-boundary runs cannot exceed the total runs; a validation message identifies inconsistent inputs.
Worked example: 42 runs and a catch
Suppose a player makes 42 runs with four fours and two sixes, takes no wickets and holds one catch. The practice base is 42 + 4 + 4 + 0 + 8 = 58 points. At 1.5× that is 87; at 2× it is 116.
This demonstrates multiplication, not a real player’s score. The tool does not select players, forecast performances or promise a result. Use role and evidence checks for a team draft, and the intended app’s own score explanation for a settled entry.
Why a real points total may differ
First compare the scorecard event, contest format, rule version and captain assignment. Then check categories omitted by this model, such as economy or a substitute rule. A different rule is not necessarily a scoring error.
For a genuine discrepancy, keep the player, fixture, contest identifier, relevant rule passage and timestamp of the displayed total. Follow the support evidence template. We do not adjudicate or change a service’s settled points.
