I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer

In a sun‑bleached suburb where cricket pitches double as community sanctuaries, the rhythm of summer practice is suddenly broken by an unseen threat. The town’s love of the game, with its pastel‑coloured uniforms and the lazy hum of Saturday crowds, becomes a backdrop for something far more unsettling, casting long shadows over the otherwise carefree atmosphere.

The story follows a close‑knit group of amateur players—Wallis, Blake, and Peacock—who share more than just a love of the sport. Their bonds are tangled with a lingering history from an under‑12 team that once spiralled into a painful bullying scandal, a secret that still whispers through the locker rooms and fuels quiet tension among the friends. When another teammate, Boyd, is drawn into the fold, the group finds themselves thrust into a precarious balance between loyalty and the growing sense that the past may be catching up with them.

As rumors of a mysterious, moustachioed figure begin to circulate, the players discover they are being shadowed by someone whose obsession with cricket has taken a twisted turn. Dressed in the traditional garb of the game—cream trousers, a jumper, and a bucket hat—this eerie presence turns ordinary equipment into unsettling symbols of menace. The police intervene, moving the team to a secluded “safe house” in the remote township of Joadja, a location that feels both protective and claustrophobic, amplifying the ever‑present feeling that they are never truly out of sight.

Within this tense environment, each character must confront not only the looming danger but also the unspoken grudges and loyalties that have defined their friendships for years. Phil Philips, a name tied to the older scandal, and his sister Reynolds linger in the background, hinting at deeper connections that could reshape the group’s dynamics. The film thrives on its uneasy blend of suburban serenity and mounting dread, inviting the audience to wonder how far the love of a game can be distorted when old wounds refuse to stay buried.
