Public Competitions - World Cup Cricket

Something for everyone!

While GameDay World Cup Cricket will be familiar with experienced GameDay Squad coaches, with all the bells and whistles that make GameDay Squad fantasy sports great still being included in Cricket, the fixtures will be a little bit different this time around... GameDay Squad World Cup Cricket will be a Daily Fantasy Sports competition, meaning that every day is a new round and a new challenge for all coaches to prove that they're the best amongst the best fantasy players in the world!

To explain daily fantasy sports further, here's an example: Round 1 - (02/06/2024) USA vs Canada: Coach's build a team of USA and Canada players. Rounds reset and winners are determined for the next rounds fixtures. Round 2 - (03/06/2024) West Indies vs Papua New Guinea and Namibia vs Oman: Coaches are permitted to build a team comprising of West Indies, Papua New Guinea, Namibia and Oman players. Rounds reset and winners are determined for the next rounds fixtures and so on as the competition runs! In rounds where two games are played on the same day, coaches have the ability to select players from all four teams for their teams on that day. Teams need to be filled for squads to be eligible for prizes. Squad that are not filled will be automatically disqualified. Coaches do have the ability to fill squad with players that are not playing in that round if needed to fully fill a squad.

The World Cup Cricket fantasy sports game will have four different public competitions. Users will be able to submit teams for all four competitions available on the GameDay Squad fantasy sports platform. Click "My Squad" to find the competitions dashboard with all four competitions on the screen and enter your desired competition by selecting "Enter".

Starter Competition: $5.5 million salary cap The Starter Competition (New to 2024) allows coaches to go head-to-head against each other with only Bronze player cards! The $11 million salary cap is the most restrictive of all competitions available on the GameDay Squad platform, where only Bronze player cards go head-to-head!

Classic Competition: $6 million salary cap The Classic Competition puts coaches to the test, challenging them to create a top-performing team each week while staying within the salary cap. This introduces another level of strategy to the game. Should coaches go all-in on a few Diamond Player Cards, surrounded by mostly Bronze Player Cards? Or should they opt for a balanced team primarily made up of Silver and Gold Player Cards? The winning approach will likely vary each week, making this a truly distinctive version of fantasy sports.

Challenger Competition: $8.5 million salary cap With a little bit more wiggle room in Salary Cap compared to the Classic Competition, the Challenger Competition offers a brand new challenge for coaches! Will coaches opt to use their Salary Cap toward Diamond and Platinum cards or will the higher tier cards make way for more Gold and Silver cards? So many different tactics can be applied, making the outcomes so diverse.

Champion Competition: No salary cap restriction The Champion Competition is a no-limits test of fantasy skill and stands out as the ultimate challenge for coaches. Coaches in this division must leverage all of the Player Cards at their disposal to achieve the highest possible score.
