How to Play on Auction Factory
Whether you are hosting an IPL Mega Auction with 10 friends or organizing a weekend box cricket draft, here is how to get started in under 30 seconds.
Choose Your Tournament or Local Mode
Select from 10+ official formats including IPL, WPL, BBL, SA20, The Hundred, CPL, MLC, ILT20, Test 11, and ODI 11 — or switch to Local Tournament Mode to upload your own box/turf cricket player list.
Pick Your Franchise & Auction Format
Enter your manager name, claim your favorite franchise (CSK, MI, RCB, KKR, etc.), and choose between Mega Auction (full ₹120 Cr rebuild), Mini Auction (with custom player retentions), or Legends Auction.
Invite Friends via Room Code or WhatsApp
Share your unique 6-digit room code or click the WhatsApp Invite button. Friends can join your dugout directly from any mobile or desktop browser without downloading an app.
Bid Live with Inbuilt Dugout Voice Chat
Turn on your inbuilt browser microphone to talk live with rival managers while bidding. Watch the accelerated countdown clock (20s → 10s → 5s) and manage your overseas quotas and purse.
Select Playing 11 & Win Cap Awards
Once the auction ends, select your best Playing 11 (maximum 4 overseas players). Reveal the Orange Cap, Purple Cap, MVP, and the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd podium winners with downloadable squad cards!
Pro Tips for Franchise Managers
- • Save at least 20-25% of your purse for the accelerated middle-order and death-bowler sets.
- • Keep track of your 4 Foreign / 7 National Playing 11 balance before spending heavily on overseas stars.
- • In Local Tournament Mode, every local player starts at a fixed 20 pts base price for fair bidding.
