Cricbuzz API endpoint
Cricbuzz over summaries API
Returns every over-summary row present in the first-party Over-by-Over page payload and the live innings filter values. Some upstream snapshots include only a recent window; the response sets is_complete=false in that case. Full ball-by-ball commentary text is not included.

How this endpoint behaves
Query parameters:
match_url: required. Use the canonical matchurlreturned by/api/v1/cricbuzz/matches.
Returns over-summary rows from Cricbuzz's Over-by-Over page and its dynamic innings-selector values. It includes the batting/bowling summaries and score at each returned over but omits full ball-by-ball commentary. Some page snapshots expose a recent over window rather than the full innings; is_complete and coverage identify that limit. The current page's innings dropdown values are returned for discovery; its click effect was not replayed, so no innings_id query is exposed.
