On reaching 100 runs : 80 Bonus Points

Stumping: 20 Points
Run out : 20 Points

Example: If a user has entered 500 points on player one. If this player scores a century and
takes a catch and a wicket the points earned by the player are as follows….
For batting he earns 180 points (100 points for century and 80 bonus points for scoring a
century)
For taking wicket he earns 25 points.
For catch taken he earns 15 points.
Total points earned by the player is 220. So Points gained by the user on this player is Points
entered * Points Gained = 500 * 220 = 110000.
If this player is tagged as a star performer his final value is tripled. So it will become 330000.

My Team Rules

There are no changes planned for My Team


1. Each player starts with 5000 credits.
2. Note: You will earn 1000 bonus points on every first login TO “MY TEAM” each day.
3. Each fixture will have a predetermined set of odds* (chances of a playing team winning) based
on which the returns are determined.
4. The lower the odds of a team winning a particular fixture, the higher your returns will be and
vice versa. If the team you have placed your credits is lost, you lose all the points placed
5. Returns from a fixture will be doubled if you place more than 50% of your credits in hand
6. Returns from a fixture will be quadrupled if you place all of your credits in hand
7. My Team selection for a particular match freezes 30 minutes before the match begins.
8. Once betting for My Team is submitted successfully for the match, user cannot change
anymore.
9. For matches on weekends My Team can be selected on Friday of that week. Example: If a user
has 7000 points in hand and he bets for India(odds 5/7) vs Bangladesh(odds 2/7) match.
If he places all 7000 credits on India and if India wins the match the points gained will be as
follows…
Points Gained = Points Entered * (1 minus Odds on the team) = 7000 * 2/7 = 2000
Since all the points are entered on India the above value is quadrupled. Therefore Points
Gained = 2000*4 = 8000.
This value is added to the points entered on the team, so the final points user gets after the
match is 7000 + 8000 = 15000
