# Scoring 2025 Global Cricket Championship scoring has been slightly altered to better suit 50 over cricket! In 2025, **DOT BALLS** will be **REDUCED** from **1 point** per dot ball to **0 points**. It is important to note that dot balls will still appear in the GameDay Squad Match Centre and Stats Centre, however the value of that statistic has changed to **ZERO** points. Coaches will score GameDay Squad fantasy points each round based upon the real-life performance of the players on their Field, multiplied by their associated [Player Score Multiplier. ](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/platform-features/player-cards/player-score-multiplier-psm)Points will be awarded or deducted based on the performance statistics of each [active player](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/sports/global-cricket-championship/broken-reference) according to the following criteria: | Stat | Points | | --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | | Runs (Per Run Scored) | 1 | | Boundary Hit | 1 | | Six Hit | 2 | | 30 Runs Scored Bonus | 4 | | 50 Runs Scored Bonus | 8 | | 100 Runs Scored Bonus | 16 | | Dismissal For a Duck | -2 | | Wicket (Excluding Run Out) | 20 | | Maiden Over | 15 | | Dot Ball | 0 (Changed from 2024 scoring model) | | 3 Wicket Bonus | 4 | | 4 Wicket Bonus | 8 | | 5 Wicket Bonus | 16 | | Extra Conceded (Wides + No Balls) | -1 | | Catch | 8 | | Run Out | 15 | | Stumping (Wicket-Keeper Only) | 15 | | 3 catch bonus | 4 | | 4 catch bonus | 6 | | 5 catch bonus | 8 | Additional [scoring](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/sports/global-cricket-championship/broken-reference) details: * The [multiplier](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/platform-features/player-cards/player-score-multiplier-psm) a [Player Card](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/platform-features/player-cards) receives is dependant on the [rarity](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/platform-features/player-cards/rarity) of that card. * The[ Player Score Multiplier](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/platform-features/player-cards/player-score-multiplier-psm) will be applied to a player's score after the game is complete. * Players in a team's [Reserves](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/sports/global-cricket-championship/broken-reference) will not score points. * Once all GameDay Squad fantasy points have been calculated, a daily total score will be assigned to each coach for the round. * The winner of the overall [competition](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/sports/global-cricket-championship/broken-reference) is the Coach who scores the most amount of GameDay Squad fantasy points across the whole season. * The [Leaderboard](https://gameday-squad.gitbook.io/gameday-squad/sports/global-cricket-championship/broken-reference) is the place to go to find our how well you're doing compared to other coaches. * It is important to note that inactive players do **NOT** score points; even if an inactive player has played in a round/game. Players become active when they are added to offical team playing lists, there may be some lag time to process the player from inactive to active status on the GameDay Squad platform. * It is important to note that in the event of a caught and bowled, only the wicket (20 points) will be rewarded. A catch is NOT awarded in the event of a caught and bowled. * In the event of a super over played in a fixture, the points accumulated in the super over will NOT count towards player and squad scores. * If a player has recently changed teams and the change hasn't yet been reflected on the GameDay Squad platform, the player will score 0 points. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
