What can I get

• 🔴 Live, recent, upcoming and scheduled matches — pick a list, or narrow it to international, league (IPL, BBL, CPL…), domestic or women's cricket
• 🏆 Whole series — every fixture and result of a tournament or tour, like all 74 matches of IPL 2026
• 🏏 Every match row — both teams with innings scores, the live status line, format, series, venue and start time
• 📊 Full scorecards on demand — every batter's runs, balls, fours, sixes, strike rate and dismissal, every bowler's figures, extras, fall of wickets, partnerships and powerplays
• 🧑‍⚖️ The match card — toss, result with margin, players of the match and series, umpires, third umpire and referee, and the series scoreline
• 🧾 Source context on every row — which list, series or URL the match came from, and its kind of cricket

Why Cricbuzz Scraper

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

• 🧩 Thin match lists — two team names and a status line, no toss, no officials, no scorecard
• 🔗 No series or category filters — you get whatever is on the live page, nothing more
• 💸 A start fee on every run — four of the five other Cricbuzz Actors charge one, which punishes small runs
• 🪦 Works today, breaks next month — nobody maintains it

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