Quick Play: no waiting, no sign-up

Quick Play is the solo mode. Choose a topic, a difficulty (easy, medium, hard or mixed), 5, 10, 15 or 20 questions and 10 to 30 seconds per question. Correct answers score at least 100 points, and answering faster earns up to 50 more, so speed matters. Sign in to save your personal best and appear on the quiz leaderboard.

Lifelines: 50:50, +10 seconds and Skip

Quick Play gives you three lifelines per quiz, one of each. 50:50 removes two wrong answers but halves the points on that question. +10s adds ten seconds to the clock. Skip moves on without a penalty but scores nothing. Finish without using a single lifeline and your result is marked "No lifelines used", which is the real bragging right. Lifelines are for solo play only, so live room games stay fair.

Rank, share and challenge a friend

Every finished quiz earns a rank: Net Bowler, Twelfth Man, In the XI, Team Captain or Man of the Match, depending on your accuracy. You also get a colour grid, green for correct, yellow for skipped and red for wrong, that you can share in one tap. Press Challenge on WhatsApp and your friend gets a link to the exact same questions in the same order, then sees who won. They do not need an account to accept.
