How It Works

How to Run a Cricket Toss Online

Use it before your scorer creates the match. The toss takes a few seconds and gives both captains a clear, visible result.

1

Captain Calls

Before the flip, one captain calls heads or tails. Agree the call clearly before pressing the button.

2

Flip the Coin

Tap Flip Coin. The tool shows either heads or tails and updates the session counter.

3

Choose Bat or Bowl

The toss winner chooses to bat or bowl first. Then create the match and start ball-by-ball scoring.

What Happens After the Cricket Toss?

Before a cricket match starts, both captains complete a toss. One captain calls heads or tails. The toss winner usually chooses whether to bat first or bowl first depending on pitch conditions, weather, dew and team strategy.

For local cricket — box cricket, turf leagues, gully matches, school tournaments — the toss is just as important. It gives both sides a simple, fair way to decide innings before the scorer creates the match and records the first ball.

Live Cricket Scoring connects this toss step to the next action: create the match, select teams, enter the toss winner, choose bat or bowl, and start scoring ball by ball. Share the live scorecard link on WhatsApp so parents, coaches and spectators can follow from any browser without installing an app.

When to Use It

Coin Toss Tool for Local Cricket Matches

Designed for local cricket, not a generic random decision page.

Gully, Box & Turf Cricket

Perfect for gully, tennis-ball, tape-ball and box cricket matches where teams need a fast toss without hunting for a coin before the booked turf hour starts.

Match Toss

Run a quick heads-or-tails toss before a club, school, tape-ball or gully cricket match when no physical coin is available.

Tournament Matches

Use the same toss process before every fixture in a local cricket cup, RWA league, knockout bracket or school tournament.

Before App Scoring

After the toss, open Live Cricket Scoring, enter the toss winner, choose batting or bowling, and start the live scorecard.

School Cricket

Teachers, coaches and student scorers can run a clear toss before inter-house, inter-school or coaching academy cricket matches.

Practice Matches

Use it for practice games when captains still want a fair heads-or-tails decision before deciding batting order.

From Toss to Scorecard

Start With the Toss. Continue With Live Scoring.

The coin toss is only the first match step. Live Cricket Scoring helps with everything after it.
