🧤 Thala

Locked-legend build — one superstar is pre-drafted for you; build the other four around him.

MS Dhoni ('11 Super Kings) is locked in at keeper. Build around him — win 11+ matches.

What the rule means

Win floor

11 of 14 matches

The locked player

He occupies the wicketkeeper slot before you draft a single player, so you are really making four picks, not five.

How to clear it

Dhoni keeps and finishes, so the other four picks should lean top-order runs and a strike bowler. Do not draft a second keeper.

Every challenge is scored on the season, not the draft — finishing the roster is not a pass on its own. You get one attempt per day, and the board resets at midnight UTC.
