Faster cricket data and pricing, ready for BBL|16
RPM has rolled out upgraded versions of its two cricket products, EDGE and PACE, ahead of the new Big Bash League season.
EDGE is RPM’s cricket pricing feed, delivering fast, accurate pre-match and in-play odds. PACE is our direct stadium data feed. Both have been redeveloped to cut latency during fast-moving T20 matches.
A Historic Start to the Big Bash
BBL|16 gets under way on 12 December in Chennai, where the Melbourne Renegades take on defending champions the Perth Scorchers. It is the first Big Bash League match ever played outside Australia, and it is expected to bring a big rise in viewing and betting from India, the world’s largest cricket betting market.
The Chennai fixture starts a busy run for cricket betting, with the IPL and then the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in October 2027 following soon after. That puts more pressure than ever on operators to have low-latency pricing in place that can cope with surges in betting from both retail customers and syndicates.
What’s New in EDGE and PACE
- Ball tracking delivered with near-zero latency, at 0.01 seconds
- Pricing models built on more than 11 million deliveries across historical match scenarios
- EDGE prices that factor in local conditions, including temperature, humidity and wind
- API-ready feeds, built for rapid integration
- Operational consoles, plus live and historical statistics for trading teams
Built for the Busiest Periods
Richard Thorp, founder of RPM, said that slow, legacy pricing puts operators’ margins at risk at exactly the moments when betting turnover hits record levels. The upgraded EDGE and PACE feeds are designed to let trading teams make the most of those high-volume periods, rather than spending them managing risk.
Beyond Cricket
EDGE pricing will also expand to cover tennis and football, with US sports to follow.
