Description

A 1v1 fantasy cricket draft where every player can have only one owner. Draft your Playing XI against a friend or rival, one player at a time, with 30 seconds to pick. Once a player is taken, they're gone from your opponent's board. Play upcoming live matches or draft classic matches from cricket history. No shared pools, no identical teams — just cricket knowledge, strategy and nerve.

Could you build this?

Partial Implementing a synchronized real-time turn-based draft with timers, state management, and matchmaking is feasible, but fantasy cricket operations require access to expensive, licensed real-time sports data feeds and strict jurisdictional legal compliance.

What it would actually take: Requires Node.js/Go backend with WebSockets or Elixir/Phoenix for low-latency synchronized drafting state machines, paired with a React Native or Flutter mobile client. The primary barrier is integrating commercial cricket data provider APIs (e.g., Sportradar, Cricket API) for real-time ball-by-ball scoring and historical match stats, alongside handling strict compliance rules for fantasy sports apps.
