Learn SQL with cricket examples
Every question uses a fictional dataset with five tables: teams, players, matches, batting_stats and bowling_stats. You start with simple filters and sorting, then move to GROUP BY, joins, HAVING, subqueries, CASE WHEN, window functions like RANK and DENSE_RANK, and finally CTEs.
Your queries run instantly in a real Postgres database inside your browser. Answers are checked on our server, and you never get the same question twice, even when you replay.
