Every number's count since April 18, 2026 →

The lottery publishes about 180 days of past draws, so this table starts at April 18, 2026 rather than at the last rule change. We store every new draw as it happens, so it deepens by one line a day.

The statistics behind that

Expected count 21.5, standard deviation 4.4. The leader sits at 2.18 standard deviations against an expected maximum of 2.11 for 35 numbers; a lead at least this large arises by chance about 14% of the time. Goodness of fit to a uniform draw: chi-square 45.1 on 34 degrees of freedom, p = 0.096. How we calculate it.

Frequently asked questions

Do hot and cold numbers predict anything?

No. The gap between the most and least drawn number here is 22 appearances, which is about what 188 draws produce on their own. The table is worth looking at; it is not worth betting on.

Why do your frequencies differ from other sites?

Mostly because we only count draws since the game last changed its set of balls: counting across a change mixes two different games. Cash Ball 225 is published by a single official feed, and every draw here is that feed's record; our sources page says which.

What does the shaded band on the chart mean?

It marks the normal range — where 19 out of 20 numbers land when every one is equally likely. With 35 numbers on the chart, two or three sticking out above or below it is the usual picture rather than a sign of anything.

How far back does this Cash Ball 225 data go?

Our full history runs back to April 18, 2026 — 188 draws. The frequency table on this page uses the 188 draws since April 18, 2026, the first the lottery still publishes. Browse every draw by year.
