How to Play

CricSix is a fantasy cricket game built around collecting player cards. Each real-world cricketer has a card on this site — when they perform in real matches, your card earns points based on our scoring matrix, the match format, and the player's contributions.

1)

Cards & Packs

You get player cards by opening packs. Packs can be earned in multiple ways, including daily login bonuses and other in-app activities. Each pack reveals players you can use in squads.

Some packs may be Picks — meaning you’ll be shown multiple options and you choose a limited number to keep.

Your collection is your long-term advantage: the more useful cards you own, the more squad options you have.

2)

Building Your Weekly Squad

Each competition has a time window (a “gameweek”). You’ll build a squad using cards you own and submit it into the competition before it locks.

  • You can submit multiple squads (when enabled for a competition).
  • Only players you selected (and who actually play) can score points for your squad.
  • You can review and confirm your squad before the lock. After lock, changes aren’t allowed for that gameweek.
3)

Scoring Basics

Points come from real match stats: runs, wickets, catches, economy rate, strike rate, milestones, and more. Exact values depend on the scoring matrix and may vary by format (T20/ODI/Test).

You can inspect how points were earned on the Match Points Breakdown pages, player-by-player.

4)

Competitions, Results, and Leaderboards

Enter competitions to test your squads against other users. As matches finish and stats are processed, your points update and you’ll climb (or drop!) on the leaderboard.

  • View your submitted squads and your score on the Live page when matches are underway.
  • After the gameweek ends, leaderboards finalize and prizes (if enabled) are awarded.

A simple way to improve fast

If you’re new, keep it simple:

  1. Open a few packs to build a base roster.
  2. Use Scout to find consistent performers for the format.
  3. Submit a squad, then review the points breakdown after matches.
  4. Repeat — your collection gets smarter over time.
