## What is Bat or Bowl?

Bat or Bowl is a practical cricket match-day companion for captains, umpires and scorers.

Start with a satisfying, fair Heads or Tails toss, record the winner's decision, then keep the match moving with clear outdoor-friendly scoring controls.

Features:

• Fair 50/50 cricket coin toss with an end-over-end animation
• Clear Heads or Tails result and Bat or Bowl decision
• Quick umpire counter with large 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 buttons
• Wides, no-balls, wickets, byes, leg byes and run-outs
• Automatic legal-ball and six-ball over tracking
• Safe Undo and delivery correction tools
• Over-by-over backup scorebook
• Configurable teams, overs and wicket limits
• Two-innings complete match flow and locally saved history
• Shareable innings and match summaries
• Optional current weather, rain, wind and daylight outlook

Built for club cricket, school matches, garden games and friendly fixtures. Bat or Bowl is deliberately simple and fast: no account, adverts, subscriptions or payments. Scores and match history stay on your iPhone. Internet and optional When In Use location access are required only for Match Weather.

Weather is general match-day guidance, not an official safety or playability decision.
