How to Play Fantasy Cricket on Playible (Using NFTs)

Welcome to Playible’s cricket fantasy platform! Here, you can participate in free fantasy cricket contests and win prizes in $USDC.

What Is Playible’s Fantasy Cricket?

In Playible’s Fantasy Cricket, you manage a lineup of real cricketers. You choose who plays and who doesn’t, and you receive points based on their real-life game performance. We’ve revolutionized fantasy sports by bringing it to the digital world, incorporating blockchain and NFT technologies for an innovative and interactive experience.

Our games operate similarly to other Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) sites, such as DraftKings or FanDuel, but you’ll need to own a player’s NFT to play with them. This means not everyone can play with top players like Joe Root or Babar Azam.

What Is a Fantasy Cricket Lineup?

To compete in Playible’s weekly contests, you need a complete 12-man lineup. Your lineup will have players from different cricketing roles.

Start with two bowlers.

Next, choose one wicketkeeper.

Then, pick two batsmen, followed by two all-rounders.

Finally, the remaining five slots can be filled with any players you choose, irrespective of their roles.

Players on Playible can only play in the role shown on their NFT. So, if a player’s NFT says they’re a batsman, they can only play that role, no matter where they play in real life.

How Do Athlete NFTs Score Fantasy Points?

There are several ways to score points in our fantasy cricket contests. Players earn points for their specific stats, based on their roles.
