CRICKET Odds API

Our CRICKET odds API delivers CRICKET odds, player props, status and results for every match from 12 bookmakers, 11 of them Australian. leagueID=CRICKET. Free tier available.

Whether you're building a betting app, an odds comparison tool or a pricing model, the CRICKET odds API gives you structured data in the SportsGameOdds v2 shape so you can move fast.

Covering more than CRICKET? The Cricket returns IPL and CRICKET from a single sport-level request.

CRICKET Odds API Features

Every endpoint is filterable, so you pull exactly the markets you need. Coverage spans 6 teams and 3 events currently carried, with 3 market families.

Available CRICKET betting markets include:

• Head to head / moneylines (2-way and 3-way markets)
• Lines, spreads and handicaps
• Totals (over/under)
• Alternative lines
• Player props and game props
• Period-specific markets (full game)

All market data is pre-match, refreshed every ~2 minutes; see pricing for what each plan can see.

CRICKET Player Props API

Access 2 CRICKET player proposition markets through the same endpoint — Runs, Wickets — for every player the books price. See the player prop odds API for the market list across every sport.

Filter by playerID, stat type or bookmaker to return only the props you need.

CRICKET Odds API with Results

SockOdds delivers CRICKET odds and event data together in one response — no need to stitch data from multiple sources. Each response includes:

• Upcoming CRICKET events with status flags
• Home and away team data with ids
• Players with production ids where present
• Full odds coverage: lines, totals, head to head, props and alternative lines
• Results and scoringSupported flags where the source grades

Line movement tracking is yours to build: every bookmaker entry carries lastUpdatedAt, and finished events are retained.

Quick start: your first CRICKET odds API call

Getting CRICKET odds takes a single HTTP request:

https://api.sockodds.com/v2/events?apiKey=YOUR_API_KEY&oddsAvailable=true&leagueID=CRICKET&limit=10

curl -X GET "https://api.sockodds.com/v2/events?oddsAvailable=true&leagueID=CRICKET&limit=10" -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

const response = await fetch("https://api.sockodds.com/v2/events?oddsAvailable=true&leagueID=CRICKET&limit=10", { headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" } });
const { data, nextCursor, notice } = await response.json();
console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));

import requests

response = requests.get("https://api.sockodds.com/v2/events", params=dict(oddsAvailable="true", leagueID="CRICKET", limit="10"), headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"})
output = response.json()
print(output["data"])

req['x-api-key'] = 'YOUR_API_KEY'
res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, use_ssl: true) { |http| http.request(req) }
puts JSON.pretty_generate(JSON.parse(res.body)['data'])

<?php
$ch = curl_init("https://api.sockodds.com/v2/events?oddsAvailable=true&leagueID=CRICKET&limit=10");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ['x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY']);
$output = json_decode(curl_exec($ch), true);
curl_close($ch);
print_r($output['data']);

This returns all available markets — lines, totals, head to head and props — for upcoming CRICKET events.

To narrow to a specific market, use the oddID parameter, with PLAYER_ID standing for every player:

const response = await fetch("https://api.sockodds.com/v2/events?oddsAvailable=true&leagueID=CRICKET&oddID=runs-PLAYER_ID-game-topbat-yes&includeOpposingOdds=true", { headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" } });

OddIDs follow the format {statID}-{statEntityID}-{periodID}-{betTypeID}-{sideID}, where the entity is a player for props and home, away or all for team and game markets.

Tips to keep responses fast:

• Add bookmakerID=betright,betrsportsbook to limit to the bookmakers you care about
• Use includeOpposingOdds=true so you only need to specify one side of a market
• Keep your oddID list tight — only request markets you're actively using

What a CRICKET response looks like

Every event returns an odds object keyed by oddID. Here's a real market from the feed with the bookmaker list cut to two books:

{
  "eventID": "ipl_2026-09-27_england_vs_sri_lanka",
  "leagueID": "CRICKET",
  "odds": {
    "runs-away-game-ml-away": {
      "oddID": "runs-away-game-ml-away",
      "opposingOddID": "runs-home-game-ml-home",
      "marketName": "Match Winner",
      "statID": "runs",
      "statEntityID": "away",
      "periodID": "game",
      "betTypeID": "ml",
      "sideID": "away",
      "fairOdds": null,
      "bookOdds": null,
      "byBookmaker": {
        "neds": {
          "odds": "+380",
          "decimal": 4.8,
          "available": true
        },
        "pointsbet": {
          "odds": "+400",
          "decimal": 5,
          "available": true
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Two things worth noting. Odds values are strings, not numbers, so -108 arrives as "-108" — that keeps the leading + intact on underdog prices — and every book also carries decimal, because Australian books quote decimal. bookOdds is the consensus with the vig left in; fairOdds is the de-vigged price on Rookie and above, null where it cannot be computed.
