Last man standing: letting the final batter bat alone
Full Match
Turn on Last man standing in Gully Rules during Full Match setup. When the ninth wicket falls, the last batter carries on alone instead of the innings ending — the true gully way to finish an innings.
On vs off
On — with one batter left, they bat alone. No non-striker, and the innings only ends when they are out (or the overs run out).
Off — standard cricket: the innings ends when the team is one wicket from all out, because a lone batter can't bat.
Last man standing lives under Batting Format in the Gully rules sheet.
How the app scores the lone batter
The second batter card disappears and the last batter faces every ball. Odd runs don't swap the strike — there is nobody to swap with. And yes, the lone batter can still be run out going for a second; the app doesn't pretend that dismissal is impossible.
Turning on Single-side batting locks Last man standing on with it — in a one-batter-at-a-time innings, every batter is effectively a last man.
Where partnerships go
A lone batter has no partner, so the partnership figures stop when the last man begins. The scorecard shows the stands up to that point and the lone stretch after them.

A gully rule where the final batter carries on alone instead of the innings ending when the team is one wicket from all out. They face every ball, with no partner at the other end.
Can the last batsman bat alone in cricket?
Not in the formal game, where an innings ends when no partner remains. In gully cricket it is common, and Gully Crix supports it with a single toggle.
How does scoring work with only one batsman left?
The lone batter faces every delivery and the strike never rotates, since there is nobody to rotate with. They can still be run out.
