Action Types

The below information details the key FastPath actions and sub action types we will be collecting live and distributing via the live Actions WebSocket.

An action type can be something like a 4/6, wicket, bye/leg bye etc. The sub action type gives extra context to that initial action type. i.e. a possible wicket (action type) and caught out. Actions data could relate to actions, such as runs scored, possible wicket, possible runs, possible boundaries

Match data can be:

  • Which players are within the teams

  • Which colours are being worn by the team

  • What the environment is like on the given day, i.e. the weather conditions

Update on collection suspension reason Ids

On July 10, 2024, we will amend the reason from “Mid Session” to “End of session” while keeping the reasonId as 20. Additionally, on the same day, we will introduce “Interval” with reasonId 19.
