How Backyard Cricket scoring works

Two-team limited-overs version: agree overs and wicket limits, then give each side one batting innings.
An over is six valid balls. Wides/no-balls add extras and do not count among the six; agree any backyard exceptions first.
Runs includes extras; do not add extras again to the final score. Wkts counts wickets lost in that over; Total is running runs.
Most runs wins. If play exceeds ten overs, continue on another copy and carry runs/wickets forward.
