Top 5 Fantasy Cricket Tips
- Research Player Form: Always check recent performances before selecting players. Look at last 5 matches statistics.
- Pitch Conditions Matter: Tailor your team based on whether the pitch favors batsmen or bowlers. Green tops help pacers while dry pitches favor spinners.
- Captain Selection is Key: Your captain earns 2x points - choose a consistent performer who is likely to play full match.
- Balance Your Team: Don't overload with batsmen or bowlers - maintain a good mix (typically 5-6 batsmen, 3-4 bowlers, 1-2 all-rounders).
- Follow Team News: Last-minute changes can impact player availability. Check playing XI 30 minutes before deadline.
