Why Automated League Management Matters

Managing tournament brackets on paper spreadsheets leads to disputed Net Run Rates (NRR), delayed fixture schedules, and frustrated captains. Criconic automates every step.

Step 1: Define Tournament Format & Rules

Choose between Round Robin (League), Group Stages with Knockouts, or Straight Elimination. Configure match overs, ball type, and points criteria.

Step 2: Onboard Teams & Squads

Share the tournament registration link with participating captains. As each captain registers, their verified playing squad is automatically populated into the tournament roster.

Step 3: Schedule Matches & Assign Scorers

Create fixtures with dates, venues, and timings. Assign designated scorers who log each delivery via the Criconic mobile scorer screen.

Step 4: Real-Time Standings & Fan Sharing

Points tables and NRR update instantly after the final ball is bowled. Share live tournament links with supporters across WhatsApp and social media.
