IPL Fantasy Cricket Tips
Assemble a strong team
To get started, it's crucial to build a solid core team. Focus on selecting players who are in good form and are likely to play in every match. Key roles like the Captain and Vice-Captain should be dependable and consistent performers.
Focus on Indian players
International players can be valuable assets to your team, but since only a limited number can feature in each match, their impact in fantasy leagues can be limited. On the other hand, Indian players often have more opportunities on the field in the fantasy league.
Choose overseas players sensibly
You can pick up to four overseas players in your IPL fantasy team, so choose wisely. Go for in-form international players with strong recent performances. Avoid inconsistent players, as they might be dropped in upcoming matches—costing you valuable points.
New players are underdogs
According to IPL Fantasy League rules, every team must include at least one uncapped player—someone who hasn’t played international cricket yet. These players usually cost fewer credits than star players, but don’t underestimate them—your uncapped pick could turn out to be the game-changer!
