Points Table Mystery
I’ve been following the SRL points table, but I’m confused about how net run rate seems to swing so drastically from match to match. Since these are simulated games, shouldn’t the numbers be more consistent? Or am I misunderstanding how SRL calculates NRR?

NRR in SRL works exactly like in real cricket — it’s based on runs scored vs runs conceded over the entire season. The reason it can change so fast is that SRL matches sometimes produce really dominant wins, which heavily impact the formula. I found a good explanation on https://cricketholicpk.com that breaks down how standings update after each match. They also explain how bonus points work in the SRL format, which can shake up the table even more. Once you understand how each big win or loss affects the math, the swings make sense. It’s not that SRL is inconsistent — it just reflects T20 volatility even in simulated form.
