A live-tracking playbook for IPL 2026 fantasy contests on Exchange22: how the captain multiplier moves in real time, when the mid-inning Impact Player swap changes the math, and what to read off the bench slot through the powerplay, middle, and death.
Exchange22 mirrors the international and domestic T20 schedule used by Indian broadcasters. On a typical busy day you'll see one or two T20 internationals, an IPL double-header during the season, plus a domestic T20 match in the evening window.
| Time (IST) | Match | Venue | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3:30 PM | India A vs Bangladesh A | Lucknow | T20 |
| 7:30 PM | Mumbai Indians vs Chennai Super Kings | Wankhede | IPL |
| 10:30 PM | Australia vs England | Melbourne | T20I |
The Exchange22 app shows the same fixture list inside the Matches tab. Open the app, find today's date, and you'll see the contests grouped by match.
For every fixture, Exchange22 opens four standard contest types. Each one has its own prize pool, its own entry fee, and its own strategy. Most new players start with practice contests and head-to-head rooms before moving to the mega leagues.
You can enter one team into multiple contests, or build up to 11 separate teams in a single mega league. Building multiple teams lets you hedge on captaincy and pick combinations the field is unlikely to share.
The team builder on Exchange22 stays editable until 30 minutes before the toss. After that, the system locks probable XIs, pitch data and your captain pick. The most common reason people lose contests is leaving team edits until after the toss.
Exchange22 pulls ball-by-ball data from official scoring feeds, so your team score updates within seconds of a real-life event. Captain points are doubled, vice-captain points are multiplied by 1.5, and every player on the field contributes based on the role they actually played — not the role they were picked in.
Full point rules are inside the app under Help → Scoring. We also break down the rules on our fantasy cricket basics page.

Exchange22 contests close 30 minutes before the scheduled toss. Rain delays don't extend the deadline.
No. Once the toss is logged, all teams lock. If a player in your XI is ruled out before toss, the app auto-swaps them from your bench.
You can join up to 25 contests per match on a single team, or build up to 11 different teams in a single mega-league contest.
Yes, but the contest stays locked. If the match is officially abandoned, Exchange22 follows the contest rules: most contests refund entry fees, mega leagues usually declare based on the last available score.
If your captain is not in the playing XI, the captain arm passes to your vice-captain. No refund is issued.
