    cricket_win_probabilityWin probability for a limited-overs match, live or hypothetical, from a logistic model fitted on 8,000+ archived matches (per format and innings, with pre-match Elo). Pass a state for an in-play number, or just two team names for a fixture that has not started. Returns each side's probability and who is favored. Use for 'who is winning', 'what are the odds at X/Y', or 'who is favoured tomorrow'.
    cricket_head_to_headCareer batter-vs-bowler record from ball-by-ball archives: balls faced, runs scored, dismissals, strike rate. Cricket tracks these like baseball's batter-vs-pitcher splits.
    cricket_player_careerCareer aggregate statistics for a player (men's and women's cricket) from Cricsheet ball-by-ball archives: innings, runs, strike rate, average, high score, wickets, economy — per format.
    cricket_match_archiveLook up an archived limited-overs match and return its scorecard: innings totals, top scorers, leading wicket-takers. Search by team names, league (mlc, ipl, bbl, psl, cpl), and/or year.
    cricket_phase_statsHow a player performs by phase of the innings — powerplay, middle overs, and the death — for batting and bowling. This is the split that separates a strike-rate merchant from a genuine finisher, computed from ball-by-ball archives.
    cricket_venue_statsHow a ground plays: matches recorded, average first-innings score, highest first-innings total, and how often the chasing side wins there. Useful for toss decisions and pre-match reads.
    cricket_leadersLeaderboards for a league and optional season: most runs or most wickets, from ball-by-ball archives. Leagues include mlc, ipl, bbl, psl, cpl and international cricket.
    cricket_team_formA team's most recent archived results — opponent, outcome, and match event — for reading current form.
    cricket_market_oddsLive prediction-market prices for a cricket match from Kalshi (a CFTC-regulated US exchange), shown beside this server's own win probability so the two can be compared. Prices are cents that equal implied probability: 42 means the market prices a 42% chance. Informational only — not betting advice, and event contracts are legal only in some jurisdictions.
    cricket_dismissalsHow a batter gets out, or how a bowler takes wickets, across the ball-by-ball archive: bowled, caught, lbw, stumped, run out and the rest, with counts and shares. Run outs are excluded from the bowling view because they are not credited to the bowler.
    cricket_disciplineDot-ball percentage, boundary percentage and economy for a bowler, or the same rates faced by a batter. These are the numbers that decide limited-overs games well before the wickets column does, and no scorecard shows them.
    cricket_situationalA batter's record batting first versus chasing, in limited-overs cricket: runs, balls, average and strike rate for each. Multi-day cricket is excluded rather than guessed at, since there the fourth innings is the chase and the first three are not comparable.
    cricket_partnershipsA batter's most productive partnerships: runs added while the two were at the crease together, how many stands, and their best. Stands are reconstructed by segmenting each innings at the wickets that fall, since the archive records the striker but not the non-striker.
    cricket_live_matchesCurrently live and upcoming cricket matches with scores where available (ESPNcricinfo public feeds).
    cricket_explain_termExplain a cricket term in plain English with its closest baseball equivalent (wicket, yorker, googly, powerplay, DLS, and ~60 more).
