Step 01
Set up
Send us your teams, players, and fixtures — we load them in and brand the app as your league. We can import from a spreadsheet, so you don’t start from scratch.
For leagues & organizers
Your league’s own live cricket app
Every match scored live, every stat current, your auction analyzed, your season’s story in one branded place — the whole thing under your league’s name.
Draftmates — For Leagues
Fans follow international cricket on an app — live scores, full scorecards, stats, news. Your league deserves the same thing, built for you. DraftMates replaces the patchwork of a scoring app, an auction tool, a WhatsApp group, and a spreadsheet with a single app that is your league online.
1. Live Scorecards
Every match in your league, scored ball-by-ball and streamed live. Fans open a link and follow the action in real time — the same way they follow international cricket, except now it’s your tournament on the screen.
- A live, public scorecard for every match — share a link, no install needed to watch.
- A ball-by-ball scoring console for your scorer, on any phone or tablet.
- Full cards: batting, bowling, extras, fall of wickets, partnerships, this-over.
- Live match state: target, required run rate, overs and balls remaining.
- All the cricket logic handled — wides, no-balls, free hits, byes, run-outs, retired hurt, strike rotation.
- Multi-scorer handover — pass the console mid-match without losing a ball.
Built for the reality of local cricket. There is no official data feed for your matches — every ball is captured by hand, and grounds rarely have signal. DraftMates is offline-first: your scorer records every delivery with zero connectivity, and it all syncs the moment signal returns. Nothing is lost.
2. Stats, Standings & Profiles
The whole season, quantified and always current. Every run, wicket, and result rolls up automatically from the live scoring — no spreadsheets, no manual tallying, no arguments about whose numbers are right.
- A live points table — wins, losses, net run rate, points.
- Batting and bowling leaderboards — runs, strike rate, wickets, economy, best figures.
- A profile page for every player — season record, form, match-by-match history.
- Records, milestones, and multi-season history that compounds as your league grows.
3. News Feed
A feed that makes your league feel like a league — the story of your season told in one branded place, instead of WhatsApp forwards that disappear up the chat by the weekend.
- Match reports, results, fixtures, and the full schedule.
- Player features, photos, highlights, and video.
- Announcements pinned to the top when they matter — all branded as your league.
4. Auction Data
Your auction is where the season’s strategy begins — and it’s a story worth telling. DraftMates turns it into insight automatically: squad spends and budgets, value-for-money analysis, ranked bargains and overspends, the most expensive XI, and team-balance breakdowns.
Or run the auction with us. DraftMates ships a full live auction engine — real-time multi-team bidding, budget and cap rules, an admin console with undo and pause, an unsold pool, and injury replacements. Already have an auction tool you like? Keep it — send us the results and we do the rest.
Also available
Optional layers you can switch on whenever you want — turning the people watching your league into people playing along with it.
Fantasy over your own players
Fans and members draft a team from your league’s real players, scored live from the same ball-by-ball feed that powers your scorecards. People end up watching every match their picks are in — even the ones their own team isn’t playing.
Prediction & viewer games
Predict the toss, the winner, the XI; over-by-over and next-wicket calls in play; player of the match after. Leaderboards, streaks, and badges keep people coming back — free to play, and sponsorable by a local brand.
Why DraftMates
- Purpose-built for leagues with no data feed. The hard problem — capturing live, ball-by-ball cricket offline with no official API — is solved. Generic scoring apps treat that as an afterthought; for us it’s the foundation.
- One branded app, not a pile of tools. Scorecards, stats, news, and auction in one place under your league’s name — instead of five disconnected services and a spreadsheet.
- The live-data advantage. Because the scoring feed is ours, everything downstream — scorecards, instant stats, fantasy, in-play games — is native and immediate.
- Everything stays yours. Your league, your players, your data, your branding. We run the platform; you own the league.
- A real platform, running today. DraftMates runs live cricket scoring, analytics, and auctions in production — built by people who run real cricket leagues, not a concept on a slide.
