Module:Sports table/CricketRR/doc

This style for Lua-based Module:Sports table is meant to build group and league tables for cricket competitions which use Net run rate as a ranking criteria (typically One-day or T20 competitions).

Usage

The main command is the {{#invoke:Sports table|main|style=CricketRR}} statement which calls the module and enables you to set everything up. Next, list the positions of the teams as |team1=, |team2=, etc for however many teams you need in the table. You can use full team names there without spaces if you want, but using codes (as in the example) can make it easier. For each team you now define the wins, losses, ties, no results and NRR using |win_TTT=, |loss_TTT=, |tie_TTT=, |nr_TTT=, |nrr_TTT= respectively (with TTT replaced by the team code). If you do not define these numbers, they are automatically assumed to be 0. It is good practice though to include them anyway and to align the columns using appropriate spaces , so the code is easy to read. Define the |name_TTT= parameters which determine what name is shown in the table, you can use wiki markup and templates here as well. The module uses a set of default points values of 2 for a win, 1 for a tie or no result and 0 for a loss, but it is possible to override these and also include bonus points or deductions, as have sometimes been used as well as NRR to separate teams.
