Cricket Saathi
For captains

The free cricket team app for captains

Stop chasing 60 WhatsApp messages every week. Cricket Saathi collects who is in, helps you pick the side, splits the costs and gives you a ready message or image card for the group.

Availability without the chaos

Share one match code. Players tap Available, Maybe or Unavailable with the last 4 digits of their phone — no app download, no sign-up. You see live counts and who has not replied, and remind them in one tap.

Pick the playing XI

Confirm players, set the batting order, mark captain, vice-captain and wicket keeper, and share a Welcome Playing Squad card on WhatsApp.

Add your squad by voice

Say “Rahul Sharma wicket keeper, next, Amit opener” in English or Hindi and the squad list fills itself, roles included.

Split ground, umpire and ball costs

Add the match expenses, split them between the two teams and across your players, tick payments as they come in and settle the accounts. A treasurer can do this for you.

Tournaments and kit

Ask who is in for a tournament, lock the squad, split the entry fee, and collect jersey numbers, sizes and ages that go straight to the organiser.

Short of players?

Find players near you in the Cricket Saathi player pool and invite them to your match.

Frequently asked questions

Is Cricket Saathi free for cricket teams?

Yes. Captains, players and organisers can use Cricket Saathi for free. You only need a Google account or an email address to sign in as a captain.

Do my players need to download an app or sign up?

No. Players open the match link or code you share on WhatsApp and confirm who they are with the last 4 digits of their phone number.

Does it work with WhatsApp groups?

Yes. Every update — availability, reminders, the playing squad, payments — is ready to share on WhatsApp as text or an image card. Nothing is sent without you.

Can someone else manage the team money?

Yes. Pick a treasurer from your squad. They can add expenses, mark payments and settle accounts, but cannot change anything else.
