How live scoring works on StumpScope

Our coverage labels separate a real tournament from a match with active automatic score coverage.

01No external score API
02Event ledger
03Visible revisions
04Honest fallback

A competition can be active without StumpScope claiming to score it live. Our league directory describes the real-world season state; our match centre uses a separate coverage state based on whether a supported automatic feed is active.

The automatic feed model

For a supported match centre, the automatic adapter normalizes innings, batter, bowler and commentary updates into one read-only response. The public page refreshes that response throughout play.

What happens if a source disconnects

If a connected source becomes temporarily unavailable, the public page retains its last confirmed snapshot and timestamp. It does not manufacture a ball, infer a score from social media or copy another cricket site’s commentary.

What automatic coverage requires

This model avoids a paid third-party score-feed dependency, but it is not cost-free at scale. Reliable coverage still needs source access, hosting, monitoring, backups and data-rights review.

Editorial note

This report summarizes named sources in original language. It does not reproduce proprietary commentary, imagery or score feeds.
