Key Notes & Triggers:

  • Notes like Tea Break, Lunch, and Dinner are triggered by scheduled intervals based on the match format and playing conditions.

  • Statuses like Interrupted or Delayed are condition-dependent, often triggered by external factors like weather.

  • Specific conditions, such as bad light or rain, may lead to transitions between Int. and Aban., or even Cancl. in extreme cases.

Edge Cases & Exceptions:

  • Interrupted Matches: These may resume or be abandoned depending on factors like weather conditions or ground readiness.

  • Postponed Matches: Matches are rescheduled but retain their original metadata in the API.

  • Cancelled Matches: These have been removed from the schedule, and no further updates have been provided.
