Scoring
Each question scores up to 100 points, based on how close your pin is to the real location. The five questions are weighted 1×, 1.5×, 2×, 2.5× and 3×, so a perfect round scores exactly 1,000 points. Tapping inside the correct country always scores 100.
About the Cricket edition
Cricket is played across more than 100 countries and has iconic grounds on every continent except Antarctica. From the historic pitches of England and Australia to the subcontinental fortresses of India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, from the Caribbean to South Africa — the cricket edition tests your knowledge of the sport's full geographic spread.
Whether you're a fan of Test cricket, ODIs, the IPL, the Big Bash or any of the domestic T20 competitions, you'll find questions that test your knowledge of where the sport has been played and where its greatest moments happened.
Tips for the cricket round
- Major Test grounds are almost always in or near the largest city in their country — so if in doubt, pin the biggest city in the country mentioned.
- Birthplace questions can be tricky — legendary players were often born in smaller towns rather than the major cricketing cities.
- Remember that Pakistan's major grounds are in Karachi, Lahore and Rawalpindi; South Africa's in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban and Port Elizabeth; Australia's in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
- Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe all have fewer grounds — so narrowing down to the country gives you a strong start.
