Punjab gets a Sher-e-Punjab T20 league of its own — and the India schedule is already in the way

The Punjab Cricket Association launched the six-team Sher-e-Punjab T20 League at its international stadium in New Chandigarh on 3 August 2026, with 27 round-robin matches from 30 August to 13 September — a window that overlaps India's second Test finish in Colombo on 27 August and the Bangladesh white-ball tour through 13 September.

How to verify any figure on this page

Every number published on COME SPORTS carries a provenance tag — the match-id, the source feed and the timestamp of the most recent verification. Hover or tap the small calendar icon beside any sub-heading to see exactly when the figure was last cross-checked against the live data feed. If you spot a number that has drifted, write to the editorial desk at [email protected] and we will reconcile within 48 hours.

For figures that depend on private data — squad pricing, KYC approval rates, withdrawal TAT — the source is documented on the methodology page. The methodology page is itself audited quarterly by the compliance reviewer, and any change to the documented process is appended as a timestamped correction note at the foot of the page.

Reading checklist — what to do with this page

The most efficient way to read any COME SPORTS page is in three passes. The first pass is the headline — read the title, the eyebrow and the first paragraph to understand the editorial scope. The second pass is the structure — skim the section headers to build a mental outline of the page. The third pass is the deep read — work through each section in order, following the internal links as you go.

If you are short on time, every page has a one-paragraph executive summary at the top of the section list and a detailed FAQ at the bottom that covers the recurring reader questions. The summary is for the time-poor reader; the FAQ is for the reader who wants to interrogate the page before applying its framework.

Editorial principles — what COME SPORTS will and will not do

COME SPORTS operates under four editorial principles. First, we cite our sources — every claim is linked to the official ball-by-ball feed, the franchise media release or the state gazette notification that supports it. Second, we publish the inputs to our models — a prediction that hides its inputs is marketing, not analysis. Third, we re-verify on a published cadence — weekly during the IPL, monthly in the off-season.

Fourth, we do not chase engagement. We do not publish clickbait headlines, do not run countdown timers and do not pop up "limited offer" banners that distract from the editorial content. We do not pay for sponsored editorial in disguise. Where we do accept sponsorship, the post is clearly labelled at the top and reviewed under the same editorial pipeline as every other guide.

Frequently asked, briefly answered

Every reader question that recurs more than three times in a week becomes a candidate for inclusion in the FAQ at the bottom of the page. We add a FAQ entry only when we can answer it in plain language without losing precision, and only when the answer does not change week to week. Time-sensitive questions — current KYC queue depth, current withdrawal TAT, current captain pick — are surfaced on the match prediction hub and updated within minutes.

If your question is not answered here, write to the editorial desk at [email protected]. We read every email and reply within 24 hours on weekdays. Recurring reader questions become FAQ entries; one-off questions are answered directly.

Features

Everything you need to draft smarter.

Built around the actual decisions you make before every toss: who to captain, who to fade, when to take a hedge, when to walk away.

Verified squads

Every franchise roster cross-checked against the official feed, the auction list and the playing XI at toss.

Captain logic

A formula, not a feeling. Form + role + venue + matchup, weighted, then audited against last season.

Side-by-side points

IPL, T20I and ODI scoring compared on the same table — no collapsed columns.

Match prediction

A win-probability model that publishes its inputs so you can disagree with the output.

Live scoreboard

Worm graph, run rate, projected total and fantasy points — updated ball by ball.

Responsible play

Deposit caps, self-exclusion and helplines — built into the app, not bolted on.

State-wise eligibility at a glance

COME SPORTS tracks the state-level eligibility map for paid fantasy-sport contests in India. The current view — as on date of publication — is that paid contests are allowed in the majority of states and union territories, with restrictions in force in Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Assam, Sikkim and Nagaland. The in-app geo-fence at sign-up is the legally binding version; this table is the editorial view.

If you are signing up from a state where paid contests are restricted, the app will automatically downgrade your account to free-only contests and contests with no cash prize. You can still use the editorial guide, the live scoreboard and the captain suggestions. If you move to an eligible state, the in-app geo-fence will unlock paid contests within 24 hours of your new location registering.

Customer support — how to reach the right team

COME SPORTS routes reader questions to three different teams depending on the subject. Editorial questions — corrections, suggestions, expert pitches — go to [email protected] and get a reply within 24 hours on weekdays. Compliance, disclosure and source-verification questions go to [email protected]. App-side issues — KYC, withdrawal, login, contest entry — go through the in-app help centre, because the app team needs your account-id to investigate.

For urgent responsible-play concerns — deposit limits, self-exclusion, session time-outs — the in-app responsible-play console works 24×7 and bypasses the standard queue. The iCall helpline at 9152987821 (10am–6pm, Monday–Saturday) and Gambling Therapy India offer confidential support for anyone struggling with gambling-related harm.

What changed recently — last-reviewed timestamp

This page is part of a published editorial calendar with a documented re-verification cadence. During the IPL season (late March to late May), every figure on this page is re-verified weekly. During the off-season, every figure is re-verified monthly. The full audit trail for any published number is accessible by hovering or tapping the small calendar icon beside the sub-heading.

The most recent substantive update to this page is logged at the foot of the page in the "Editorial log" section. If a published figure drifts by more than 10 percent from the underlying data, the page is updated within 24 hours and a timestamped correction note is appended.

The chain starts at the fantasy cricket hub and runs through the IPL-specific hub, the prediction hub, the live scoreboard, the captain guide and the bonus guide. If you want a structured walk-through of the entire site, the fantasy guides blog is the right starting point — it covers the evergreen material in reading order.

The IPL 2026 calendar page lists every match, every venue and every squad update for the current season.

How the editorial team is structured

COME SPORTS is run by a small editorial team of senior cricket analysts, data engineers and a full-time compliance reviewer. The cricket analysts write the guides, run the model audits and produce the captain picks. The data engineers pull the ball-by-ball feed, normalise the data and maintain the form index. The compliance reviewer reads every claim against the current state-level notifications and the latest operator terms.

The team is intentionally small. A smaller team means a tighter editorial pipeline, fewer handoffs and a faster correction cycle. It also means we cannot cover every cricket event globally — we focus on the IPL, the T20 World Cup, the Asia Cup and the bilateral series involving India.

Independent of any operator — our editorial stance

COME SPORTS is editorially independent. We do not operate a paid fantasy app ourselves. We do not take a commission on contests entered through any third-party operator. We do not run sponsored editorial in disguise. Where we do accept sponsorship, the post is clearly labelled and reviewed under the same pipeline as every other guide.

Our funding model is straightforward: display advertising plus a flat referral fee paid by partner operators when a reader signs up via a tracked link. The flat fee is the same regardless of whether the reader plays a single contest or every match of the season, which keeps our editorial incentives aligned with the reader's.

Match prediction

Model output, with the inputs visible.

Our model outputs a probability — not a promise. Visit match prediction for the full method.

IPL match prediction probability chart

Inputs we publish

  • Form — last 5 matches weighted
  • Venue — average score, pitch type, boundary length
  • Head-to-head — last 5 meetings
  • Weather — verified at match start
  • Toss — captain choice history at venue

Long-run accuracy is logged on the prediction hub. The model does not know who will win — it assigns a probability and asks you to decide.

FAQ

Frequently asked, honestly answered.

The ten questions our desk receives most often.

What is COME SPORTS?

COME SPORTS is an editorial fantasy-cricket guide for Indian players. We publish independent, source-linked analysis of squads, points systems, captaincy logic, predictions and live scoreboards — and we link out to a companion app where you can apply that analysis in a contest.

Is COME SPORTS free to read?

Yes. Every guide, prediction, points table and scoreboard on this site is free to read. The companion app is free to install. You only pay if you choose to enter a paid contest inside the app.

Is fantasy cricket legal in India?

Fantasy cricket is a game of skill and is legal in most Indian states, with restrictions in a small set. The responsible play page lists the current eligible states — verify on app for the most up-to-date map.

How accurate are your predictions?

Our model outputs a probability, not a promise. We publish the inputs (form, venue, head-to-head, weather) alongside the number so you can audit it. Long-run accuracy is tracked on the match prediction hub.

How are winners verified?

Every payout row on the winners page links to a withdrawal record inside the app. We do not publish screenshots from anonymous or unverified sources.

How do withdrawals work?

Complete KYC inside the app, link a bank account in your name, and request a withdrawal to that account. The full withdrawal page walks through the upload format and turnaround windows — verify on app for the current policy.

What is the C/VC multiplier?

Your captain's points are multiplied by 2 and your vice-captain's by 1.5. Picking the right C/VC is the single largest swing in your weekly score — see the captain guide.

How can I take a break?

Open the responsible play tab inside the app and set a self-exclusion period of 7, 30, 90 days or permanent. Activation is immediate and confidential.

Do you take a cut on contests?

No. COME SPORTS is an editorial guide. We do not run the app and we do not take a commission on contest entries. The affiliate disclosure explains exactly how the site is funded.

Where do I download the app?

Use the download page to get the iOS, Android or direct APK link. Install size and minimum OS version are listed on the same page — verify on app before installing.
