## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability thebotwire-com-cricket-news-feed-9bedab01
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest cricket news from ESPNcricinfo and The Guardian from the last 2 hours — up to 20 results — and flag anything about the IPL or T20 World Cup.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or recent cricket news specifically — particularly for international fixtures, IPL/franchise leagues, or South Asia cricket coverage. It is preferable over a general news search endpoint when cricket is the sole domain of interest and you want source-level filtering (ESPNcricinfo, BBC, The Guardian, CricTracker). Especially valuable for cricket betting agents needing low-latency injury, lineup, or weather updates, or for South Asia-focused content workflows.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if query terms match no recent articles within the freshness window
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '2days' instead of '2d') may cause a 400 error
- Requesting limit above 50 will be rejected by schema validation
- Source enum mismatch (misspelled source name) returns an error or empty set
- Payment failure or 402 response if x402 authorization is not properly handled

## How this service works

International and franchise cricket. Cricket betting agents (cricket is the second-largest global betting market by handle) and South Asia-focused content tools

## Output

A list of cricket news items (up to the requested limit, default 10) drawn from curated sources including ESPNcricinfo, BBC, The Guardian, and CricTracker. Each item includes headline, source, publication time, and article content or summary. Results can be filtered by source, keyword query, and a freshness window (e.g. 30m, 2h, 24h, 3d).
