What can I get

• 🏏 Every delivery of every innings — about 250 rows for a T20, 600 for an ODI and well over 1,000 for a Test, in bowling order, wides and no-balls included
• 🎯 What happened on the ball — runs, runs off the bat, the team score after it, and flags for wickets, fours and sixes, plus milestones and DRS reviews
• 📈 Live player figures — the batter's runs, balls, fours, sixes and strike rate, and the bowler's overs, runs, wickets and economy, as they stood at that ball
• 🗣️ The commentary — Cricbuzz's text for every delivery
• 🧾 Match context on every row — match, format, both teams, series, venue and the result, so rows from many matches join cleanly

Why Cricbuzz Ball-by-Ball Scraper

Most other cricket scrapers fail you in one of four ways:

• 🧩 Scorecards, not balls — none of the other Cricbuzz Actors returns ball-by-ball data
• 💸 Five times the price — the only other ball-by-ball Actor charges $5 per 1,000 deliveries
• 🔢 Numbers without context — no batter or bowler figures at the ball, no commentary
• 🪦 Works today, breaks next month — nobody maintains it

Cricbuzz Ball-by-Ball Scraper is read live on every run, priced honestly with no start fee, and actively maintained.

FAQ

Which matches can I scrape? Any match Cricbuzz covers ball by ball — Tests, ODIs, T20Is, the IPL and other leagues, domestic and women's cricket.

What does a run cost? $1 per 1,000 deliveries and no start fee. Set Max Deliveries to cap any run.

Does it work on live matches? Yes. A live match returns every ball bowled so far; run it again later for the rest.

Are wides and no-balls included? Yes. Every delivery is a row, so a wide and the re-bowled ball are two rows in the order they happened.

Do I need proxies or a Cricbuzz account? No. The Actor handles everything.

What if a match has not started? It returns no deliveries, and you are not charged for it.
