Cricket in one minute
Only seven targets count: 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15 and the bull. Everything else on the board is a miss.
- Three marks close a target.
- Once you have closed a target and your opponent hasn’t, every extra mark scores.
- Close all seven with a score level with or ahead of your opponent to win.
How each dart counts
| Dart | Marks |
|---|---|
| Single 20 | 1 on 20 |
| Double 20 | 2 on 20 |
| Treble 20 | 3 on 20 — closed in one dart |
| Outer bull | 1 on Bull |
| Bullseye | 2 on Bull |
| Anything below 15 | Nothing |
Scoring
Only marks beyond the third score, and only while your opponent still has that target open. Each scoring mark is worth the number’s face value, and 25 on the bull. With two marks on 20, a treble 20 closes it with one mark and scores 40 with the other two. A bullseye on a bull you have closed scores 50. Once both players have closed a target, nobody scores on it again.
Closed but behind
Closing everything only wins if your score is level or ahead. If you close your last target while behind, the game goes on: keep scoring on targets your opponent still has open until you catch up — or until they close everything too. When both players have closed all seven, the higher score wins; level scores are a draw.
An example turn
- Treble 20 — three marks: 20 is closed.
- Single 20 — your opponent is still open on 20, so it scores 20 points.
- Single 5 — a miss: 5 isn’t a Cricket target.
