Draw Numbers For Each Row of Squares

© Allen Moody

The third step is to draw numbers for each row of squares. You will draw 10 numbers across and 10 numbers going down, so that each square has two corresponding numbers. When you're finished with this step, your box should look similar to the one above.

In our image above, we see that Paul has the square that corresponds with Team A scoring 6 runs and Team B scoring 2 runs. If Team wins 6-2 Paul is a winner too.

The unlucky recipient award would have to go to Rose, who drew the dreaded double 9s and would need one team to win by a score of 19-9 to win the pool, since on those occasions when a team scores more than 10 runs, you simply use the last number in its score. For example, Paul would also win the pool if Team B happened to defeat Team A by a score of 12-6.
