Come Sports Fantasy Cricket in India 2026: Real Contests, Real Prizes

Come Sports is a fantasy cricket platform where you select real cricketers, earn points based on their actual match performance, and compete for cash prizes in skill-based contests. Every contest displays entry fee, prize pool, winning slots, and payout structure before you join.

The platform runs contests for IPL 2026, international T20Is, ODIs, Test matches, and domestic tournaments like Ranji Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Contest sizes range from head-to-head (2 players) to mega contests (10,000+ players), with prize pools from ₹10 to ₹10 crore.

Come Sports holds a valid license under India's Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act 2025 (PROGA 2025), which comes into full effect May 1, 2026. The platform displays its Self-Regulatory Body (SRB) registration number in the footer and maintains responsible gaming limits for all users.

For each contest, you select 11 players from two competing teams within a fixed credit budget (usually 100 credits). Player prices reflect recent form, role, and venue history. You must pick 1–4 wicketkeepers, 3–6 batters, 1–4 all-rounders, and 3–6 bowlers, then designate one captain (2× points) and one vice-captain (1.5× points).

Points are awarded for runs (1 point per run), wickets (25 points), catches (8 points), stumpings (12 points), run-outs (6 points for direct hit, 4 points for thrower), maiden overs (12 points in T20, 4 points in ODI), and strike rate or economy bonuses. Negative points apply for slow innings in T20 (below 60 strike rate after 10 balls) or expensive bowling (above 12 economy in T20 powerplay).

Player scores update in real time during the match. The live leaderboard shows your rank, top team score, and the score you need to reach the prize zone. If the match is abandoned or reduced to below 5 overs per side, the contest is voided and entry fees are refunded within 2 hours.

Head-to-Head contests (₹10–₹500 entry) pit your team against one opponent; winner takes 1.8× the entry fee (10% platform fee applies). Small contests (50–500 players) offer multiple winning slots—top 30% typically receive prizes, with first place earning 25–40% of the total pool.

Mega Contests (5,000+ players) have large guaranteed prize pools (₹25 lakh to ₹10 crore for IPL finals) and distribute prizes to top 40–50% of participants. First prize can reach ₹50 lakh in flagship contests. Entry fees range from ₹25 to ₹2,000 depending on the contest tier.

Practice Contests are free-to-enter and award non-withdrawable bonus cash (₹50–₹500) to top finishers. Bonus cash can be used as entry fee for paid contests but cannot be withdrawn directly. Each paid contest allows up to 10% bonus cash usage; the rest must be real deposited balance.

You can deposit via UPI, debit card, credit card, net banking, or Paytm wallet. Minimum deposit is ₹50; maximum single deposit is ₹2 lakh (₹10 lakh per month for KYC-verified users). Deposits reflect instantly in your wallet, separated into 'Deposited' and 'Winnings' balances.

Withdrawals require full KYC: PAN card, Aadhaar, and bank account verification. KYC approval takes 24–72 hours. Once verified, you can withdraw winnings to your bank account or UPI ID. Minimum withdrawal is ₹50; maximum is ₹5 lakh per transaction (₹20 lakh per month). UPI withdrawals arrive in 10 minutes to 2 hours; bank transfers take 4–24 hours.

India's tax law requires 30% TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on net winnings above ₹10,000 per financial year. Come Sports deducts TDS automatically when you withdraw or when quarterly thresholds are reached. You receive a TDS certificate (Form 16A) for filing your income tax return. Deposited amounts are never taxed.

PROGA 2025 mandates deposit limits, self-exclusion tools, and reality checks for all fantasy gaming platforms. Come Sports enforces a default monthly deposit limit of ₹1 lakh for new users (adjustable down to ₹10,000 or up to ₹5 lakh after KYC verification and cooling period).

You can set daily playing time limits (1–8 hours), loss limits (₹500–₹50,000 per month), and activate self-exclusion (7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or permanent). Once self-exclusion is active, you cannot reverse it until the period expires. During self-exclusion, deposits and contest entries are blocked, but you can still withdraw existing balances.

Come Sports displays a responsible gaming score (1–10) on your profile, calculated from deposit frequency, contest entry patterns, loss streaks, and gameplay duration. A score below 4 triggers automatic reality checks (pop-up reminders every 30 minutes) and restricts entry into high-stakes contests above ₹500.

IPL 2026 runs from March 15 to May 25, 2026, with 74 league matches plus playoffs. Come Sports launches daily mega contests (₹25 lakh to ₹1 crore guaranteed pool) for every match, plus season-long leaderboards where consistent performers win bonus prizes (top prize: ₹10 lakh for Season Champion).

Playoffs and finals feature exclusive super-mega contests: Qualifier 1 (₹2 crore pool), Eliminator and Qualifier 2 (₹1.5 crore each), and Final (₹10 crore pool with ₹50 lakh first prize). Entry fees range from ₹500 to ₹5,000 for these flagship contests. Early entry (48 hours before match) unlocks bonus entries or discounted multi-entry packs.

Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026, T20 World Cup 2026, and India's home series against Australia and England also get dedicated mega contests. Come Sports runs 'Match the Superstar' contests where you try to match the team composition of a featured pro player or celebrity for bonus multipliers.
