Cricket is one of the famous outdoor sport played worldwide. There are very few APIs providing live scoreboards and none of them are free to use. Using any of the scoreboards available we can create API for ourselves. This method not only works for Cricket Scoreboard but also for any information available online. Following is the flow in which this blog would guide to create an API and deploy it. 

• Setting up the App Directory
• Web Scrape data from NDTV Sports.
  • Beautiful Soup in Python would be used.
• Create an API.
  • Flask would be used.
• Heroku would be used for deployment,
