Balls to Overs & Overs to Balls Converter

Accurate scoring is essential in cricket, especially during live matches, fantasy leagues, and match analysis. In cricket, an over is completed after six valid deliveries. Overs are written in a special format such as 10.4 — the number after the dot is the ball count within the current over, not a decimal fraction. This tool follows official cricket scoring standards to avoid that common confusion.

Enter a total ball count to instantly see completed overs and remaining balls (e.g. 37 balls → 6.1 overs), or enter overs in standard format (e.g. 8.3) to get the equivalent total balls (8.3 overs → 51 balls). Inputs are validated so the ball value always stays between 0 and 5.

  • Accurate cricket-standard calculations, not plain decimal math
  • Saves time during live scoring and match updates
  • Easy to use for beginners, scorers, coaches and fantasy players
  • Works perfectly on mobile and desktop

Frequently Asked Questions

How many balls are in one over?

One over contains 6 legal balls in all standard cricket formats — Test, ODI and T20.

What does 10.4 overs mean?

It means 10 complete overs plus 4 balls of the next over — not ten-point-four as a decimal number.

Is this tool suitable for T20, ODI, and Test matches?

Yes. The over format (6 balls per over) is identical across all formats, so the same conversion applies everywhere.

Can overs have more than 5 as the number after the decimal?

No. The digit after the point represents balls bowled in the current over and only ranges from 0 to 5.
