After winning the toss, the first player has to take the first shot with the striker to break the circle in the middle. A carrom set contains 19 pieces (striker not included) in three distinct colours: one for each player, and another for the queen.The index finger is then used to overlap the middle finger after positioning the middle finger’s edge behind the striker.

Then you will lose the round by the number of your coins on the board along with the value of the queen. To get queen points, one needs to put a carrom man of any colour in the same pocket after the queen on the same or a subsequent strike in the same turn. If this happens due to an improper strike, then you have to give the coins pocketed along with 1 due coin and 1 Penalty coin and you also lose your turn. Carrom Striker pieces are used to push the carrom men and the queen across the board to the pockets.

But if you pocket the queen, your coin and the striker together by an improper stroke, then you have 2 penalties and 2 of your coins will be due. While trying to cover the queen, if you pocket only the striker by a proper stroke, then the queen shall be taken out and placed back. The palm edge of your hand must remain vertical when using the vertical long-finger striking technique.

To push the Carrom men into the pot, you must use the middle finger to forcefully release the striker.
