8 Playing Condition (PC) [ ] CI-GPC-Game4 - Limited 45 Over.Final Bonus Points 1. The Bonus Point Target score and Run-rate ratios can be calculated in two methods; 1) at the end of the team batting first innings Target score (for team batting second) = score of team batting first / 1.25 (for 1 bonus point) or 2 (for 2 bonus points) 2) at the end of a match Run-rate ratio = score of team batting first / score of team batting second 2. Where matches are shortened and targets revised through the Duckworth/Lewis method, bonus run-rates and bonus defensive targets are derived as a function of the revised target score and maximum overs One Bonus Point Method Two Bonus Point Method to gain one bonus point, victory must be achieved 1) Batting first with a run-rate 1.25 times that of the opposition. Examples: If a team batting first scores 200 off its 45 overs it must dismiss its opposition for no more than 200/1.25 = 160 to obtain one bonus point. End of match calculation the team batting first scores 200 off its 45 overs and the team batting second scores 162. The run-rate ratio = 200 /162 = Therefore is less than 1.25 and no bonus point is awarded. 2) Batting Second prior to the end of the 36th over (or in a reduced overs match, batting no more than 80% of its maximum number of overs). to gain two bonus point, victory must be achieved 1) Batting First with a run-rate 2.00 times that of the opposition. Examples: If a team batting first scores 200 off its 45 overs it must dismiss its opposition for no more than 200/2 = 100 runs to obtain two bonus point. End of match calculation the team batting first scores 200 off its 50 overs and the team batting second scores 145. The run-rate ratio = 200 /145 = Therefore ratio is less than 2 and greater than 1.25, only one bonus point is awarded. 2) Batting Second prior to the end of the 23th over (or in a reduced overs match, batting no more than 50% of its maximum number of overs). 11.
