Cricket Chautari covers Nepal cricket: the national teams, the Nepal Premier League and domestic competitions. This page explains where our information comes from, how we check and date it, how to report a mistake, and where we use automation.

Where our information comes from

  • News articles are written and published by the Cricket Chautari team, and each one carries the writer's byline and its publish date. Some headlines in our news feed are supplied by NewsData.io, a news aggregation service.
  • Live scores, fixtures and international player data come from CricketData.org (CricAPI), a commercial cricket data service.
  • ICC team and player rankings come from the International Cricket Council's official rankings feed.
  • Nepal Premier League and domestic statistics come from the Cricket Association of Nepal's official scorecards and stat sheets (see below).
  • Videos are from our own YouTube channels, Cricket Chautari and Cricket Chautari News.

How we compile statistics

Domestic and NPL figures are imported from the Cricket Association of Nepal's published scorecards and stat sheets into our statistics database. Every row is checked when it is imported: figures that contradict each other are rejected, and figures that look wrong are flagged for review rather than silently changed.

Strike rates, averages and economy rates are recalculated from the raw counts (runs, balls, innings, wickets) rather than copied, and career and season totals add up the raw counts before any rate is worked out. A figure the source sheet did not record is shown as a dash, never as zero.

NPL fixtures, squads, finals and records that are not in the scorecards are taken from official announcements and established cricket publications. Each NPL page lists those sources and the date the facts were last checked.

Checking before we publish

We report a player signing, a squad change or an appointment once it is officially announced or confirmed by more than one independent report. Where reports disagree, we leave the detail out until it is confirmed rather than guess.

Dates and updates

Articles show when they were published and, when they have been changed since, when they were last updated. Statistics pages refresh automatically after each new scorecard is imported, and NPL pages show the date their fixtures and squads were last checked.

Corrections

If you find a mistake, email hello@cricketchautari.com with the page link and, if you can, a source for the correct information. Every page with articles or statistics also has a “Report an error” link that fills this in for you.

We check every report. When we get something wrong we fix the page, and when an article's meaning changes we add a note saying what was corrected.

Automation and AI

  • Nepali translations of articles are produced automatically, by an AI model or a machine-translation service, from the English original. They are labelled as automatic translations and can contain errors; the English article is the authoritative version.
  • The “Ask about Nepal cricket” assistant answers questions with AI. Its answers can be wrong; check important facts against our articles and statistics pages.
  • Statistics pages are generated from our statistics database. Their summary sentences and FAQ answers are written from the same figures the tables show.
