Cricket is played on segments 15 to 20 and the bull. Each player (or team) must close every segment, then have the best score for the chosen mode.

  • Single = 1 mark · Double = 2 · Treble = 3
  • Bull 25 = 1 mark · Bull 50 = 2 marks

How it works

01 Segments

20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15 and Bull. Only these areas count; anything else is a miss.

02 Closing

To validate a number, a player must accumulate 3 marks on that sector. The number is then said to be “closed”.

03 Scoring points

Once a player has closed a number, each extra hit on that same number scores points for them (or adds points to their opponents in Cut-throat mode), as long as all opponents have not also closed that number.

04 Visit

Each turn: up to 3 darts, then play moves to the next player.

End of game

05 Standard

The winner is the first player who has closed every number and the bull AND has the highest score (or equal to their opponents).

06 Cut-throat

The winner is the first player who has closed every number and the Bull AND has the lowest score (or equal to their opponents).
