When it comes to picking the right plan for your Cricket API, you can mostly narrow it down to just two requirements, and that pretty much checks all the boxes of your research. How much do you have to pay, and what do you get for that money? Simple!
For developers and businesses building cricket platforms in India, especially those focused on the IPL, fantasy gaming, or live score delivery, Entity Sport consistently stands out in this aspect. The pricing is transparent, the coverage is deep, and the support is genuinely responsive.
This blog breaks down exactly what you get with each Entity Sport Cricket API plan and which tournaments are covered at each tier, so you can make the right call before you sign up.
Entity Sport Cricket API: Plan Overview
Entity Sport offers three Cricket API plans: Starter, Pro, and Elite. Each plan gives you access to the full feature set—ball-by-ball live scores, fantasy points, player stats, match events, and commentary. The only difference between them is the level of tournament coverage and the number of monthly API calls included.
All plans come with a free trial so you can test the API before committing. On annual billing, you get 2 months free, i.e., you pay for 10 months and get 12. Add-on API requests are available on all plans at $10 per 100,000 calls, with no expiry date on purchased add-ons.

What Each Plan Actually Gets You
Starter Plan: $150/month
The Starter plan is built for platforms that need international cricket data and want to get moving quickly without a large upfront investment. You get all ICC Full Member international matches, i.e., Tests, ODIs, and T20Is, along with 500,000 API calls per month. Fantasy Points API is included.
This is the right plan if your platform is focused on international cricket or you’re in early-stage development and want to validate your product before scaling up.
Pro Plan: $250/month
The Pro plan is where most League-focused platforms will want to be. On top of everything in the Starter, you get domestic T20 leagues: IPL, BBL, PSL, CPL, BPL, SA20, ILT20, and more. API calls double to 1,000,000 per month.
For fantasy gaming apps, live score platforms, and odds providers building around IPL, the Pro plan is the practical choice. The IPL coverage alone makes it worth the step up from Starter.
Elite Plan: $450/month
The Elite plan gives you everything—international, domestic T20, domestic First Class, and List A cricket. If you’re building a platform that covers the full cricket calendar, including the Ranji Trophy, Sheffield Shield, or other domestic competitions, this is your tier. API calls go up to 2,000,000/month.
For sports analytics platforms, large fantasy operators, or media houses that need comprehensive cricket data year-round, the Elite plan is the right investment.
Starter Commentary: $250/month
You get everything that the Starter Pack includes, along with ball-by-ball commentary. The API calls also doubled to 1,000,000 a month.
Pro Commentary: $500/month
Everything that the Pro Pack includes + API calls doubles to 2,000,000/month.
Elite Commentary: $750/month
All things that the Elite Pack includes + API calls double to 4,000,000/month.
Enterprise Plan
This is a custom plan for large enterprises, which includes everything that we have to provide. For this all-inclusive plan, the API calls/month can be set according to your requirements, and you will be charged for the same accordingly. You also get priority support within 15-20 minutes with this plan.
Widgets
Entity Sport also provides built-in cricket widgets that save you the hassle of integration and that go live on your website within 2 hours. You can access live scores, the match center, and head-to-head competitions, along with commentary. There are three plans available for the widgets—starter, pro, and elite. All these plans cover the same competitions as the other plans with the same nomenclature, and the pricing for the plans is on request.

A Few Things Worth Knowing
• All plans include the Fantasy Points API—player credits, match points, and scoring logic are all handled, so fantasy platforms don’t need to build their own fantasy points calculation system.
• The free development token gives access to a few completed competitions and sample API responses across all endpoints, so you can test integration before choosing a plan.
• Upgrading between plans can be done directly from the dashboard. Downgrading requires contacting the support team at sales@entitysport.com.
• Payments are accepted via credit card, debit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex), and PayPal. Annual subscribers can also pay by bank transfer.
Bottom Line
Entity Sport’s pricing structure is straightforward—no hidden tiers, no locked features, no enterprise-only walls. Every plan gets you the same core Cricket API functionality. What changes is the breadth of tournament coverage and the scale of API access.
If you’re building for IPL specifically, the Pro plan at $250/month is the sweet spot. If you need the full domestic calendar on top of that, step up to Elite. And if you’re just getting started, the Starter plan gives you enough room to build and test before you commit.
