Cricket Matches

The match centre collects live games, upcoming fixtures and recent results from international, franchise and domestic cricket. Live matches show the score as it stands; completed matches keep their result and, where the data is published, a full scorecard.

Use the status tabs to move between live matches, fixtures and results. Each match has its own page with the teams, the venue, the start time, the innings totals and the scorecard when one is available.

Reading a match page

The innings summary gives each side’s total and overs. The scorecard, where present, lists every batter with runs, balls faced, boundaries and strike rate, and every bowler with overs, dot balls, runs conceded, wickets and economy rate. Dismissals are shown as recorded — caught, bowled, leg before, run out or stumped.

Times and time zones

Start times are shown in the site’s time zone with the zone named, so a fixture listed for the evening is unambiguous wherever the match is being played.

Where the data comes from

Match data comes from a licensed provider and is stored locally, so no page view makes a live call to an external service. A fixture whose teams have not been confirmed yet is held back rather than published as a match between unknown sides.
