CricketArb is a Bloomberg Terminal-style scanner that detects arbitrage opportunities across cricket bookmakers and Polymarket prediction markets in real-time. It pulls live odds every 5 seconds during IPL, PSL and T20 World Cup matches, compares them using an XGBoost ML model, and sends Telegram alerts when guaranteed-profit windows open. Free and open source
Hey Product Hunt!
I built CricketArb because I kept noticing odds discrepancies between cricket bookmakers during live IPL matches — and wanted to automate finding them.
What it does:
CricketArb scans odds from Bet365, Betfair, Polymarket, and other platforms every 5 seconds. When the combined implied probability across any two platforms drops below 100%, it flags a guaranteed-profit arbitrage window and sends a Telegram alert.
The interesting part — prediction market arbitrage
Polymarket's crypto-native traders update slower than traditional bookmaker trading desks during live cricket. Bet365 reprices within 2-5 seconds of each ball. Polymarket takes 30-60 seconds. That persistent speed gap creates cross-platform arb windows averaging 1.8% profit.
Some data from tracking ~500 IPL overs:
- 4.2 arb windows per match on average
- Average window duration: 47 seconds
- Average profit per window: 1.8%
- Biggest single opportunity: 6.3%
- Most common during powerplays and death overs
Tech stack:
- React + TypeScript frontend (dark Bloomberg Terminal aesthetic)
- Express.js backend
- XGBoost ML model trained on Cricsheet ball-by-ball data
- The Odds API + Polymarket for price feeds
- Telegram Bot API for signal delivery
- Built on Replit
It's free and open source:

Would love feedback from anyone interested in sports analytics, prediction markets, or quantitative trading. Happy to answer any questions about the tech or the arbitrage m
