About Switch Hit

“Developed by a team of entrepreneurs with Technology, Design and Business Backgrounds from Oxford, IIT & Georgia Tech, Switch-Hit is an exciting new social platform revolutionizing the space of fantasy sports starting with the under-served cricket market as it’s beachhead. Innovation in the field of fantasy sports has been stagnant at best since the inception of this online activity in the late 90’s. Switch-Hit plans to change the status quo by bringing extreme focus on social, design & technology to create a novel and compelling product and become the dominant player in the nascent category of fantasy cricket. Having just completed a closed beta with 50+ users validating the social component of the product, Switch-Hit is planning to raise an Angel for bringing it’s product to market.”

  1. Why can’t I access Switch HIT, without my FB Login. I wanted to see what all it has on offer ?. We play Fantasy Cricket on Criclounge / Criconfo on a Regular Basis. Both lack a good Sledge platform. So Sledging happens on Emails. I wanted to see your format without allowing Apps an access to my friend list / basically without FB. Why isn’t that possible ?

  2. There are people as old as 50 Year Old who play in my Fantasy Leagues. Set up their teams. But don’t have a FB Account. So they can’t even join a new app like yours ?

  3. Hi Sarthak,

    Thanks for your post. Your comment: “Both lack a good Sledge platform. So Sledging happens on Emails.” hits the nail on the head. That is exactly what we’re trying to create: a social first platform where friends/family/work colleagues who are avid followers of the sport can have fun in a social setting while competing with each other. I agree with both of your comments that just FB login is limiting and that we currently are not communicating all the benefits of the product on the home page as well as we should. The decision to start with a FB login was one of starting with something that took least amount of effort but possibly had the largest amount of coverage; we will be adding newer logins in future for sure – gmail sso? register with email?. As far as communicating what’s on offer without logging in, we’re thinking of creating a fun video that will tell the Switch-Hit story. We’re still in beta and need to improve as we go so thanks very much for your suggestions. Since you’re an avid fantasy cricket user, if you’re able to login and invite a few friends to play during Champions league as well as provide feedback, that would help us very much. Thanks again for your feedback!
