Fantasy contest types for tonight's matches
Come fantasy contests run on the next listed match with a choice of formats. The format affects the prize pool, the entry fee, the payout structure and the time to settlement. Below is a working map of every contest type currently exposed on the source.
Mega contest
The largest prize pool with the most entries. Entry from ₹1 to ₹100+ depending on the match. Captain earns 2×, vice-captain 1.5×. Settlement at the end of the match using official points.
Head-to-head
Two-player contests with a single winner-takes-all payout. Useful for testing line-ups and confidence picks. Settlement uses the same scoring system as mega contests.
Yes/No multipliers
Prediction questions on a specific match event - top batter, total runs, next wicket. The multiplier scales with the implied difficulty. Settlement happens when the event resolves.
Prize pool contests
Fixed prize pool with a tiered payout - top 10%, top 25% or top 50% depending on the contest. Higher share of entries receive a payout compared to mega contests.
Practice contests
Free-entry contests for new players. No real money payout, but the scoring system is identical to paid contests. Practice contests are the recommended first step before joining paid mega contests.
How captain picks work
Pick a captain and a vice-captain from your 11. Captain scores earn 2× the published points. Vice-captain scores earn 1.5×. Choosing both well is the single biggest factor in winning mega contests.

What this article covers
Come fantasy contests run on the next listed match. The format choice - mega, head-to-head, Yes/No, prize pool, practice - changes the prize pool, the entry fee, the payout structure and the time to settlement. Below is a working map of every contest type currently exposed on the source.
Mega contest
The largest prize pool on the listed match. Entries from ₹1 to ₹100+ depending on the contest. Captain earns 2×, vice-captain 1.5×. Settlement at the end of the match using official points. Mega contests dominate the published schedule because they concentrate the most entries and the largest payouts into a single feed.
Head-to-head
Two-player contests with a single winner-takes-all payout. Useful for testing line-ups and confidence picks without committing to a large entry. Settlement uses the same scoring system as mega contests, so the head-to-head is a fair proxy for how a line-up would have performed in a larger field.
Yes/No multipliers
Prediction questions on a specific match event - top batter, total runs, next wicket. The multiplier scales with the implied difficulty. Settlement happens when the event resolves, often mid-match, so payouts can arrive before the final over.
Prize pool contests
Fixed prize pool with a tiered payout - top 10%, top 25% or top 50% depending on the contest. Higher share of entries receive a payout compared to mega contests. Prize pool contests suit players who want a higher probability of a small win over a low probability of a large one.
Practice contests
Free-entry contests for new players. No real money payout, but the scoring system is identical to paid contests. Practice contests are the recommended first step before joining paid mega contests.
Where this article fits in the news stream.
Come publishes three editorial streams - brand updates, gameplay guides, and policy briefings. Fantasy contest types sits inside the the fantasy contest format menu stream, alongside the other articles in that stream. The visual reference on the left pairs with the section above.
Update cadence
Editorial articles are reviewed on a published cadence. The review timestamp appears at the top of the article so readers can see when the last review ran. The Come news team does not invent release news - every claim is sourced from the published source profile.
How to report a discrepancy
If a published article does not match what the source profile currently shows, open the support desk with the article URL and the source URL. The discrepancy is investigated and the article is updated on the next review pass.
Reading checklist before you join a fantasy contest.
Before joining any paid contest, work through the published match schedule. The match schedule lists the start time, the contest type, the entry fee, the prize pool and the closing time for new entries. Joining after the closing time is impossible - the contest is locked once the match begins.
Eligibility
Players must be 18 or older and located in a permitted Indian state at the time of entry. State checks run at entry, not at settlement. Players who relocate between entry and settlement are still eligible for payout, but the entry check must pass at the moment of submission.
Captain and vice-captain
Every fantasy line-up requires a captain and a vice-captain from the selected 11. Captain scores earn 2× the published points. Vice-captain scores earn 1.5×. Choosing both well is the single biggest factor in winning mega contests - the difference between a strong captain pick and a weak one is typically larger than the difference between two good teams.
Settlement
Contests settle at the end of the match using the official points table. The official points table is published before the match begins and does not change after. Payouts settle into the Come wallet on the same business day. Withdrawals run through the verified Come wallet.
Disputes
If a contest does not settle as expected, open a support ticket with the contest ID. The dispute team investigates against the official scoring feed. Disputes filed within the published window are eligible for investigation.
Abandoned matches
If the listed match is abandoned before settlement, the contest is voided and entry fees are refunded to the wallet. Abandoned matches do not count toward the published leaderboard window.
State restrictions
Players in restricted Indian states cannot join fantasy contests. The state check runs at registration and at every entry attempt. Players who travel into a permitted state temporarily are eligible only while physically located in that state.
