In cricket, teams earn points based on their performance in the matches they play. The most common points system in cricket tournaments is as follows:

• Win: If a team wins a match, they are awarded two points.
• Tie: In the event of a tied match, both teams are usually awarded one point each.
• Result: If a match is abandoned or cannot be completed due to weather or other reasons, both teams usually receive one point each.
• Loss: If a team loses a match, they do not receive any points.

In addition to points, teams are often ranked based on other factors such as net run rate (NRR), which is the average runs scored per over by a team, minus the average runs conceded per over by the opposing teams. It is used as a tiebreaker when two or more teams have the same number of points
