HOW THE IPL AUCTION WORKS

Build an IPL, BBL or global T20 franchise from the ground up in this cricket auction game. Auction an 18-man squad against a live salary cap, retain your core between seasons, and make in-game tactical calls: Power Surges, bowling changes, batting order, and pitch reads. Play a single Quick Play tournament with a fixed seed and a shareable result, or commit to Squad Mode, a multi-season franchise manager career where retention prices, transfer windows and club milestones carry across years. Every squad draws on real historical rosters, from the 2008 inaugural IPL season through the newest campaigns. No download and no account required to start; sign in to sync your career and rank on the global leaderboard.

GUIDES

Why a Captain Matters: Bowling changes, fields at the death, and holding a side together in a chase: what a T20 captain actually decides, and why the vice-captaincy is a real choice.
How IPL Auctions Work: Purse caps, retention and overseas-player limits: the mechanics behind a T20 franchise auction, and how the game puts you through the same calls.
How Real Careers Become In-Game Ratings: Every player is built from real career numbers. How an average and a strike rate become a rating, and the trick that makes a higher rating actually buy survival.
Why Your 99-Rated Star Still Gets Out: Peak seasons in T20 cricket look almost superhuman. Why CricArcade keeps its very best players clearly great without letting them become un-dismissable.
How a T20 Innings Is Modelled: Powerplay, middle and a death where everyone slogs: how 20 overs are shaped, calibrated to hundreds of thousands of real IPL deliveries.
Who Bowls This Over? The AI's Bowling Rotation: Pace at the death, spin through the middle, and a part-timer who tails off: how the engine picks a bowler for every over, and why it feels like captaincy.
One Engine, Five Formats: ODI, T20, online versus, the BBL and the super over run on the same engine, separated only by a handful of numbers. What actually changes between formats.
