Full scorecards

Batting, bowling and innings totals, updated as you score.

Your teams and players

Build your squads once and pick them for every match.

Registered players

Players sign in with Google and get a player code (CRK-XXXXXX), so you can find them by email or code. No account? Add them as a guest by name.

Common questions

Is Criko free?

Do I need internet to score?

No. Scoring works offline. Backup and live sharing need a connection.

Can I fix a mistake?

Yes. Undo takes back the last ball, and Edit balls lets you correct earlier ones.

Can I add players who don’t use Criko?

Yes. Add them as guests by name. Players who sign in also get a player code.

Who can see my matches?

Only you, the registered players in the match, and people you send the share link to while it is shared.

Android phones running Android 7.0 or newer. iPhone is not available yet.
