Free Cricket Scoring App for Local Tournaments
Professional ball-by-ball cricket scoring on your phone. Built for box cricket, tape-ball leagues, corporate tournaments, and club cricket — not just IPL.
Used by 1,000+ Indian tournament organisers to score, share, and analyse matches in real time. No installation required — works in any browser.
Why amateur tournaments choose CricBid
Most cricket scoring apps are built for professional matches — fixed 20-over T20 with international wide rules, six-bowler limits, and DRS workflows that nobody in a box cricket tournament needs. The result: organisers either pay for bloated software they cannot configure, or fall back to paper scorecards and Excel sheets.
CricBid solves the amateur case directly. Every rule that matters at the club level is a tournament-level setting: wide extra runs, no-ball penalties, players per side, overs per innings, single-batter ending, last-ball rule. Set them once when you create the tournament and they apply to every match without further configuration.
The scoring screen is built around speed under pressure. The scorer is usually a player waiting to bat, not a trained statistician. Buttons are large, mistakes are reversible, and the most common entries (dot ball, single, four, six, wicket) need exactly one tap. Wides, no-balls, byes, and leg-byes are second-tier but still single-tap with run-amount selection inline.

Frequently asked questions
Is the cricket scoring app really free?
Yes. The free tier supports unlimited matches, unlimited tournaments, and ball-by-ball scoring. Premium tiers remove ads and unlock advanced reporting.
Can two scorers score the same match?
Yes. Our backend uses idempotent ball-recording so two scorers entering the same ball from different devices will not double-count it.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. The app queues balls locally and syncs the moment a connection returns. You can finish an entire innings offline.
Can I customise the rules?
Yes. Per-tournament settings cover overs per innings, players per side, wide extra runs (0 / 1 / 2), no-ball rules, last-ball rule, last-batter-continues, and free hits.
How are stats computed?
Stats recompute after every ball. We store raw deliveries so any rule change reprocesses cleanly without losing history.
Does it work for tape-ball and box cricket?
Specifically. CricBid was built for amateur formats — short overs, tape-ball wides, single-batter endings, and box cricket variants are first-class.
