Terms of Use

Last updated: 12 November 2026.

Free for personal use

You may use the site for free, for your own personal use. That covers the live scores, scorecards, match reports, news briefs, fixtures, points tables and the three calculators. You need no account and you pay nothing.

Scores come without a guarantee

The scores are read from a public scoreboard data feed and refreshed automatically. We work to keep them right, but we cannot promise that a score is instant, complete or free of errors. A score can be a few seconds to a minute behind the ground. A feed can also stop or carry a mistake for a while.

So treat the site as a handy way to follow a match, not as the official record. Do not rely on it for any decision where a late or wrong number would cost you something. We are not responsible for a loss that follows from a late, missing or wrong score, report or table. The disclaimer says more about accuracy.

The calculators

The calculators work from the numbers you type in. Check your inputs, and check the result against your competition’s own playing conditions before you depend on it. The organiser’s figure is the one that counts.

Fair use of the content

The match reports, news briefs, guides and illustrations were made for this site. You are welcome to read them, share links to them and quote from them briefly.

• Fine: a short quote with a link back to the page it came from.
• Not fine: republishing the articles or illustrations wholesale, on another site, in an app or in a feed.
• Not fine: heavy scraping. Do not run tools that pull pages or score data in bulk or at a rate that strains the service.
• Not fine: passing off the site’s content as your own, or suggesting that we endorse you.

If you would like to use more than a short quote, ask us by email first.

Use the site fairly

Do not try to break the site, get around its limits, overload it or use it to harm other visitors. We may block traffic that does any of these.

Alerts and saved settings

Wicket alerts and followed teams run in your browser. Alerts work only while the match page stays open in a tab, and they depend on your browser and device. We cannot promise that every alert arrives. Your saved settings can be lost if you clear your browser data. The privacy policy explains what is saved and where.

Links to other sites

News briefs credit and link to the outlet that first reported a story, and other pages may link out too. Those sites belong to their owners, who are responsible for what is on them and for how they treat visitors. A link is not an endorsement.

Independence and names

The site is not connected to any cricket board, league, team or broadcaster. Team, league and competition names appear only to describe the matches. They belong to their owners.

Changes to the service

We may add, change or remove a feature, a competition or a page at any time, and the site may be unavailable now and then. We may also update these terms. When we do, we change the date at the top of this page. If you keep using the site after a change, the new terms apply to you.

Contact

To raise a concern about these terms, a correction or a copyright matter, write to contact@cricslive.com. We aim to answer within a few working days. The contact page lists what to include.
