Live streaming for tennis-ball cricket tournaments

Tennis-ball and gully cricket draw big crowds on YouTube. SportsHeroes gives your tournament a live scoreboard on the stream, scored from a phone at the boundary, for any format you play.

Made for the way local tournaments are played

Tennis-ball tournaments rarely follow standard rules: 4, 5 or 6 overs a side, short boundaries, different balls per over, matches back to back from morning to night. SportsHeroes lets you set overs per innings, balls per over and wickets per innings for each tournament and match, so the score and the overlays always match the format on the ground.

Streaming from the ground

Most organisers stream with a phone or a laptop running OBS or vMix. Add the SportsHeroes overlay link as a browser source and the score sits on top of your camera feed. The scorer can be anywhere with the phone; there is no cable or extra operator between the scorer and the stream.

  1. Create the tournament and add the teams and players.
  2. Copy the overlay link for the match into OBS or vMix.
  3. Score each ball from your phone. The stream updates within about a second.
  4. When one match ends, the next one is ready to score.

When the mobile signal is weak

Village and outskirts grounds often have a single weak signal. Scoring keeps working offline and every ball is saved on the phone, then sent in order when the connection comes back. The overlay keeps showing the last score instead of going blank, so a drop does not ruin the stream.

Graphics that make it feel like a big event

  • Team vs team, toss details and both squads before the match.
  • Current partnership, out batter and runs needed during the game.
  • Opening ceremony and prize distribution graphics for finals.
  • Your tournament logo and sponsor logos on the monthly and longer plans.

Pricing that fits a weekend tournament

Run a one-day event with the ₹100 Day Pass: unlimited matches for 24 hours, no watermark and up to three scorers. If you organise tournaments every month, the Monthly plan (₹2,499 for 30 non-expiring tickets) adds white-label branding, Marathi player names and commentator panels.

Frequently asked questions

Can I stream a 5-over or 6-ball tennis-ball match?

Yes. Overs per innings, balls per over and wickets per innings are set per tournament and match, so any local format works.

Do I need expensive equipment?

No. A phone to score and a phone or laptop running OBS or vMix to stream is enough. The overlay is a link you add as a browser source.

What happens if the internet drops during a match?

The scorer keeps scoring offline and every ball syncs when the signal returns. The overlay keeps the last score on screen and catches up automatically.

How much does it cost for a one-day tournament?

The Day Pass costs ₹100 for 24 hours of unlimited matches, with no watermark and up to three scorers.

Can player names be shown in Marathi?

Yes. Marathi names are included in the Monthly plan.
