New Fantasy
IPL 2026 matches are live — pick your contest, lock your XI, and enter before the toss on New Fantasy.
Not every contest is worth your entry fee. New Fantasy filters out the noise — you only see matches with real prize value, small enough fields to give you a genuine shot, and clear team news so you can build with confidence instead of guessing.
Pick the contest that matches your risk appetite.
Head-to-head gives you a 50% win rate — ideal when you are starting out. Mega contests pay more but pack thousands of entries. New Fantasy puts field size, entry fee, and prize split on the contest card before you join, so you never walk into a contest blind.
Cricket first, other sports later.
Start with cricket during IPL — it has the most contests and the most team news available. Once you are comfortable, football and kabaddi use the exact same team-building screen. No relearning required.
A ₹9 entry with 5,000 teams is harder to win than a ₹49 entry with 20 teams.
Most apps do not make that obvious. New Fantasy puts entry fee, prize pool, and field size on the contest card so you can compare and pick the better deal in seconds.
5 steps from download to your first paid contest on New Fantasy
This sequence is designed for first-time players. Follow it exactly and you will get real scoring feedback before you risk any significant money.
- Download the app and tap "Live Contests." You will see every match that is open for entries right now. Pick one — do not overthink it.
- Sign up with your phone number. No email, no documents, no KYC for your first few contests. You are in within 30 seconds.
- Pick a match you watched on TV. If you saw the last game, you already know who batted well and who got dropped. That is your biggest advantage as a beginner — do not waste it on matches you have not followed.
- Captain = your safest pick. Vice-captain = your riskiest pick. As a beginner, make your captain someone who almost always scores 30+ runs. Make your vice-captain someone with high upside — a hard-hitter or a wicket-taker. Fill the rest with players who are certain to start.
- Join a head-to-head contest — not mega. 50% win rate. You learn the scoring system, see how points are calculated, and get a result within the match. Play at least five of these before you even think about mega contests.
BONUS CODE New Fantasy
