Cricket Stats API
Cricket statistics maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the run-rate, strike-rate and chase numbers a scorer, commentator or cricket app works a match by. An over is six legal balls, and overs are given as whole overs plus balls, never as decimal overs — '20.3 overs' means 20 overs and 3 balls (20.5 in real terms), the classic cricket-maths trap this API avoids. The run-rate endpoint gives the runs per over = runs ÷ (balls ÷ 6), so 150 runs off 20 overs is 7.50 an over, and with a target overs figure it projects the innings score at the current pace. The strike-rate endpoint gives a batter's strike rate = runs ÷ balls faced × 100, the runs per 100 balls — 75 off 50 is a strike rate of 150, fast scoring in the limited-overs game; in Tests a lower strike rate with a high average is prized instead. The required-rate endpoint handles a chase: the required run rate = the runs still needed ÷ the balls left × 6, so needing 80 to win with 10 overs left is 8.00 an over — a figure that climbs sharply as balls run out, which is why a comfortable chase can tip away in a couple of tight overs. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for cricket scoring and live-score apps, fantasy and commentary tools, and sports calculators. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. 3 compute endpoints. For baseball stats use a baseball API.
