Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How are captain and vice-captain points calculated? A: Your captain earns 2x points and your vice-captain earns 1.5x points. Choose these roles wisely as they can significantly impact your team’s performance.
Q: How does the scoring system work? A: Players earn points based on their real-life performance. Runs, wickets, catches, and other actions earn positive points, while ducks and dropped catches result in negative points. Check our detailed scoring guide for a complete breakdown.
Q: How do private leagues work? A: Private leagues allow you to compete against friends or colleagues. You can create your own league with custom settings, invite specific players, and even set up mini-leagues within your main competition.
Q: What’s the difference between T20, ODI, and Test match fantasy cricket? A: T20 focuses on quick scoring and aggressive play, ODI requires balanced performance over 50 overs, and Test matches reward consistency and endurance. Each format has its own scoring system and strategy.
Q: How do I join public leagues? A: Public leagues are open to everyone. You can join global leagues, regional competitions, or special event leagues through the ‘Leagues’ section of the app.
Q: What happens if my player gets injured during a match? A: If a player is injured during a match, you can substitute them with a bench player if your league allows substitutions. We provide regular injury updates to help you make informed decisions.
Q: What is the best strategy for selecting players? A: Focus on players who consistently perform well, consider match conditions, and maintain a balanced squad. It’s important to look at form, pitch conditions, and player roles when making selections.
