Installation

  1. Install Selenium using the following command:

    pip install selenium

  2. Download the appropriate version of ChromeDriver for your system and place it in the project directory. Make sure the ChromeDriver version is compatible with your installed Chrome browser.

  3. Install Pandas using the following command:

    pip install pandas

Usage

  1. Clone or download this repository to your local machine.

  2. Update the PATH variable in the code with the path to your ChromeDriver executable.

  3. Run the script cricinfo.py to initiate the web scraping process.

  4. The extracted data will be saved as a CSV file named cricinfo.csv in the project directory.

Acknowledgments

Special thanks to the developers of Selenium, ChromeDriver, and Pandas for their invaluable contributions.

Happy web scraping!
