Cricket Wordle — The Daily Cricketer Guessing Game

Inspired by Wordle — built for cricket fans worldwide

What is Cricket Wordle?

If you love the daily puzzle format of Wordle and you're passionate about cricket, CricketGuessr is the game for you. Every day at midnight IST, a mystery cricketer is selected from 136 curated daily-answer candidates within a guessable database of 292 players spanning multiple eras and formats. Your challenge? Identify them in 8 guesses or fewer using 7 attribute-based clues.

While the original Wordle tests your vocabulary with letter-based feedback, Cricket Wordle tests your cricket knowledge with attribute-based feedback — country, playing role, batting and bowling style, IPL team, age, and international formats. Green means a perfect match, orange means you're close, and gray means try again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cricket Wordle?▾
Cricket Wordle (CricketGuessr) is a free daily guessing game inspired by Wordle. Instead of guessing a 5-letter word, you guess a mystery cricketer using attribute-based clues — country, role, batting style, bowling style, IPL team, age, and formats played.
How is Cricket Wordle different from regular Wordle?▾
Regular Wordle gives you letter-by-letter feedback on a word. Cricket Wordle gives you attribute-based feedback on a cricketer. Instead of "correct letter, wrong position", you get clues like "correct country, wrong role" or "age within 2 years". The deduction logic is completely different and requires cricket knowledge.
How many cricketers are in Cricket Wordle?▾
The game has 292 guessable cricketers from 14 countries, with 136 curated players eligible to appear as World Edition daily answers. It covers international players across Tests, ODIs, and T20Is alongside IPL specialists.
What other games is Cricket Wordle similar to?▾
