Load external script which has document.write using ReactJS

Question

I am trying to load cricruns widget using the following script which has document.write that will load the widget in the particular container where I have given. How can I achieve this inside render() in ReactJS?

<script src="//www.cricruns.com/system/application/views/widgetBase/wid_300_200_1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Please check this fiddle for more on what I am trying to achieve.

Thanks in advance.

***Update: ok, I've played around with it a little bit. It works if you just bypass the document.write and add the iframe directly using dangerouslySetInnerHTML. I added a working codesandbox below and a code example.

I hope it helps!

https://codesandbox.io/s/z6k1w94z8m

import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";

const App = () => {
  return <div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: `
  <iframe src="https://www.cricruns.com/widgetbase/wid_300_200_1"; width=250&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;show_faces=true&amp;stream=false&amp;header=true&amp;height=320 " scrolling="yes" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:310px; height:250px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
  `}} />;
};

render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));
