WC 2015 League matches will be over on March 15 and KFL will enter business end of tournament. There will be changes in bonus scoring rules for knockout stage matches.
Wickets reward - For every extra wicket or runout, half bonus point will be given.
Economy Rate Reward/Penalty- The difference of first innings run rate and bowler's economy rate shall be added to bowler's score if bowler has bowled more than 8% of innings overs. If bowler's economy rate is more than innings run rate, the difference will be deduced from bowler's score as a penalty.
Case 1 - Shami Eco Rate = 4.5, Innings RR = 6. Reward Point = 6-4.5 = +1.5
Case 2 - Shami Eco Rate = 7.5, Innings RR = 6. Penalty Point = 6-7.5 = -1.5
Strike rate Reward/Penalty - Applicable for batsman who has faced 13% of balls in innings or scored more than or equal to 10% of his team's total. Batsman strike rate shall be converted to runrate equivalent ( Runs x 6 / Balls faced). The difference of strike rate and innings runrate will be given as reward point. If batsman's strike rate is lower than innings run rate, difference will be deduced from batsman's score as penalty.
Case 1 - Dhoni 95R(45b), Innings RR = 6. Reward Point =(95x6/45)-6 = +6.66.
Total Points = 3.8 (For 95 runs) + 6.66 = + 10.46
Case 2 - Dhoni 20R(45b), Innings RR = 6. Penalty Point = (20x6/45)-7= -2.66
Total Points = 0.8 (For 20 runs) - 2.66 = - 1.87
Important - For Semifinals, rate of normal scoring, wickets, wickets bonus and rate of reward/penalty shall be double.
Case 1 - Dhoni 95R(45b), Innings RR = 6. Reward Point = 2 x [(95x6/45)-6] = +13.33.
Total Points = 7.6 (For 95 runs) + 13.33 = + 20.93
Case 2 - Shami - 10 Overs - 3 Wickets @ ER 4.2 Match RR = 6.0
For 3 wickets, 8 Points + ER bonus 2 x (6.0-4.2) = +3.6. Total +11.6
