Career record
Runs, wickets, averages, strike rate, and economy are split by format.
CricketLineAPI
Cricket player stats API for career and recent form
Look up a player once and get the profile, format-wise batting and bowling record, and recent scores needed for selection tools, fantasy research, and player pages.
Player data included
Recent form
Latest match scores or bowling returns support selection decisions.
Player profile
Name, role, batting and bowling style, and team information identify the player.
Search
Find matching players by name before requesting a full profile.
Example player record
{"player_id":"virat-kohli","name":"Virat Kohli","role":"batter","odi":{"matches":292,"runs":13906,"average":57.32},"recent_form":[72,0,113,45]}Player stats use cases
Player pages
Publish a stable profile with career totals and recent form.
Fantasy research

Selection tools

Player endpoints
GET /api/player/{id}
Returns the full player profile and summary record.
GET /api/player/{id}/batting
Returns batting totals by format.
GET /api/player/{id}/bowling
Returns bowling totals by format.
GET /api/player/search
Searches players by name.
Implementation notes
Search should be used before a profile request. Display the returned name and team so the user can confirm the player, then store the player ID. Do not build long-term records from a name string because more than one player can share a name.
Career totals update after completed matches are processed. Recent form is a short list and should not replace the career record. A batter may have bowling data and a bowler may have batting data, so render only the sections that contain values.
For a pre-match fantasy page, combine player stats with the schedule and series endpoints. The player endpoint explains the career record, while the schedule endpoint identifies the next match in which those stats matter.
