Do I need an account to play?

No. Drafting, playing a solo season, and opening or joining a room with friends all work exactly the same whether you're signed in or not. An account only adds two things: your name pre-fills in a room instead of you typing it, and a completed game is saved to a career profile — see below.

What does signing in actually save?

Only games you complete while signed in, and only your own result — never anyone else's, never anything from before you had an account. What's stored is your drafted squad and how each player performed in that simulated game (runs, wickets), tied to your account so your profile can show career totals, titles won, and your top scorers and wicket-takers across every game you've saved.

Where do the ratings come from?

Every rating is computed from real ball-by-ball IPL data — see About for the source. Nothing is an official BCCI or IPL figure, and nothing here should be read as a prediction of a real match; it's a simulation built for a game, not a forecast.

Is this affiliated with the IPL?

No. This is an independent, unofficial fan project, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the BCCI, the Indian Premier League, or any franchise. See Terms for the full statement.

What's a Room?

A live draft and match you play with other people — 2 seats for a Final, 4 for a Cup, 10 for a full League with playoffs. Any empty seat is filled with a real historical squad rather than a bot drafting live, so a smaller group still gets a full field.

What information do you collect if I register?

A username, an email address, and a password — the password is hashed before it's ever stored, never kept in plain text. Full detail is in the Privacy page.

Are there ads?

No. The site runs on voluntary UPI tips — see Privacy for how those work.

How do I delete my account?

Email mishrakoustav01@gmail.com from the address on the account and ask — there's no self-service deletion yet.

Found a bug, or something look wrong?

Same address: mishrakoustav01@gmail.com. This is a one-person project, so a real report is genuinely useful.
