For cricket enthusiasts, the best entertainment is to enjoy live cricket matches on their TV screens, but if they fail to see it on television, technology has built a pathway to access the online live cricket scores and other sports like Football, Hockey, Tennis, Kabaddi, etc. Let’s see how to develop a Live Cricket Score app. In this article, I’m using one of the top cricket live score provider Roanuz Cricket API, to explain you on how to create a Live Cricket score web application. Note: This tutorial will not conclude on the complete development of all widgets shown on above image. But it will help you build one widget.

Step 1: Create a new App on Roanuz Cricket API

With the coverage of all essential cricket Seasons and Tournaments from ICC, IPL, T20, ICE T20, BBL, PSL and CL Matches.

git clone [https://github.com/roanuz/cricketapi-nodejs.git](https://github.com/roanuz/cricketapi-nodejs.git)
