Terms of use — editorial coverage
Editorial coverage, with the disclaimer on the record.
Come Sports Match is an editorial website. The terms below describe the editorial scope, the disclaimer on commercial offers referenced from the site, and the limits of the desk’s liability. The terms are reviewed every quarter. The review is published as a dated editor’s note at the bottom of this page.
What the desk provides, what it does not.
The desk provides editorial coverage of the cricket calendar: fixtures, predictions, player and team intel, tournaments, app reviews, points-system reference and editorial guides. The desk does not provide real-money contests, investment advice, legal advice, or tax advice. Where a commercial offer is referenced, the operator’s own terms apply — not the desk’s.
Disclaimer
The editorial coverage on this site is provided for general informational purposes. While the desk makes reasonable efforts to verify fixtures, team sheets and other factual claims, the desk cannot guarantee accuracy at every point in time. The desk is not responsible for decisions made by readers based on the editorial coverage on this site.
The limits of the desk’s liability.
The desk is not liable for any loss resulting from reliance on editorial coverage on this site. The desk is not liable for any commercial transaction completed through an operator’s own platform — the operator’s terms and dispute path apply. The desk is not liable for any data breach at a third-party service; the third-party’s notice applies.
The desk’s liability is limited to the value of the editorial coverage provided — which is provided free of charge. Where a reader has paid the desk for a syndicated piece, the liability is limited to the value of the syndication fee.
Terms questions, answered.
Is the desk editorial?
Yes — the desk is editorial. The desk does not provide real-money contests, investment advice, legal advice, or tax advice.
What about the operator offers I see on the site?
Operator offers are on the operator’s own platform. The operator’s terms apply, not the desk’s.
Do you publish a dispute path?
Yes — the desk responds to complaints via the contact page. A dispute about editorial coverage is reviewed by the editor-in-chief.
What about the review schedule?
The desk reviews these terms every quarter. The review is published as a dated editor’s note.
Are these terms in any other language?
No — these terms are in English only. Where a Devanagari version is published, the English version is the legal reference.
What about international readers?
These terms apply to all readers, regardless of jurisdiction. Where a local regulation provides stronger rights, the local regulation applies.
Do you publish a copyright notice?
Editorial coverage on this site is licensed Creative Commons BY-NC 4.0. The licence is on every page footer.
Where do I send feedback?
The contact page accepts feedback on editorial coverage and on these terms.
What these terms do not cover.
These terms cover the editorial coverage on this site. They do not cover the operator’s own terms or the regulator’s dispute path. Where the desk links to an operator, the operator’s terms apply. Where the user has a dispute with the operator, the regulator’s dispute path applies.
These terms also do not cover the user’s interpretation of the editorial coverage. Editorial coverage is provided for general informational purposes; the user is the decision-maker; the desk is not liable for the user’s decisions.
The desk’s review of these terms is published every quarter as a dated editor’s note at the bottom of this page. Where a term changes, the change is highlighted in the next quarterly review.
Where these terms are read.
These terms are read under the laws of India. Where a user is in a different jurisdiction, the local laws apply to the user’s interpretation of these terms. The desk publishes these terms under the editorial standards published by the International Federation of Periodical Publishers and the Editors’ Code of Practice.
How these terms are kept current.
These terms are reviewed every quarter by the editor-in-chief. The review covers: the editorial-scope statement, the disclaimer, the liability clauses, the editorial-standards reference, the governing-law clause, and the dispute-resolution path. Where a term changes, the change is highlighted at the top of this page with a dated editor’s note. The desk does not silently update the terms.
How editorial-coverage disputes are resolved.
A dispute about editorial coverage is resolved by the editor-in-chief within five working days. The editor reads the dispute, looks at the published piece and the desk’s records, and replies in writing. Where the dispute has merit, the editor publishes a correction or an editor’s note on the piece.
Where the dispute is about a commercial offer referenced from the editorial coverage, the operator’s dispute path applies — not the desk’s. The desk publishes the operator’s dispute path on the operator page; the user follows the operator’s flow for refund or cancellation questions.
The agreement, in plain language.
The user agrees to these terms by accessing the site. The agreement covers the user’s use of the editorial coverage on this site — including the scoreboard, the captain matrix, the role-balance chart, the team-sheet coverage and the methodology. The agreement does not cover the user’s use of any third-party operator linked from the site; the operator’s terms apply.
Where the user accesses a feature that requires a separate agreement (e.g. an email subscription, a paid syndicated feed), the desk publishes the additional terms at the point of signup. The user agrees to the additional terms by completing the signup.
How a term change happens.
A term change happens after the quarterly review by the editor-in-chief. Where the review identifies a term that’s outdated or unclear, the change is drafted, reviewed by the desk’s editorial counsel, and published with a dated editor’s note at the top of this page. The change is published at least thirty days before it takes effect.

These terms cover the desk’s editorial coverage on this site. The terms do not cover the user’s data at any third-party operator linked from this site; the operator’s privacy notice applies to the user’s data at the operator’s platform.
