About crickedle

crickedle is a free daily cricket guessing game — the cricket entry in the “-dle” family alongside footbadle, basketbadle and f1dle.

Every day there's a fresh puzzle in each of six modes, identical for every player in the world and reset at midnight India Standard Time. All puzzle data is built offline from public sources, so the game loads fast and never breaks mid-day.

The modes

• Guess the Cricketer — Name any cricketer; each guess reveals attribute tiles (nationality, role, batting hand, bowling style, team, age) coloured green for a match, yellow for close.
• Cricket Grid — A 3×3 immaculate grid — fill every cell with a player who fits both its row and column category. Each player can be used only once.
• Career Trail — A player's career chain of teams is revealed earliest-first; guess whose it is, with another stop revealed for each wrong guess.
• Ground Spotter — Identify a cricket ground from its photo. Wrong guesses unlock hints: city, capacity, year established and home team.
• Playing XI — Guess the team from its playing XI — flags, roles and batting order. Hints reveal the league, ground, captain and a star player.
• Odd One Out — Four players, three share a hidden trait. Tap the one that doesn't fit; the reveal explains the trait.
