Important Points to Remember While Choosing the Best Fantasy Cricket Website in India

Indians love cricket, and they love technology. And that's the reason fantasy cricket has become such a rage in the country. Since fantasy cricket is a game of skill and not a game of luck, it is legal in India (except the states of Assam, Odisha and Telangana) and most parts of the world. However, before you engage yourself in a fantasy cricket game, make sure to acquaint yourself with the necessary fantasy cricket information and the top fantasy cricket sites in India. 

Quick Facts about Fantasy Cricket

Different leagues and sites have enumerated their own criteria and point system. However, the fundamental criterion remains the same that is to select a minimum of eleven players in your team, including batsmen, bowlers, all-rounders and a wicket-keeper. You will be awarded points based on the performance of your chosen players in scoring runs, taking wickets and catches, and doing stumping and run-outs. Besides, bonus points are awarded for scoring a half-century or a century, for taking three or more wickets, and so on. Here are a few quick expert tips:

1. Look at the player’s performance in previous matches to judge their consistency.
2. Consider the nature of the pitch in selecting the number of bowlers versus batsmen for a particular match being played on a particular pitch.
3. Know how the pitch has performed in previous matches.
4. Focus on young and talented players, along with big names to maintain balance.
5. Include players who regularly take catches and are exceptionally good fielders.
6. Have 1-2 death bowlers in your team.
7. Include 2-3 top-order batsmen.
8. Choose an all-rounder captain. Most fantasy cricket websites provide almost twice the points for the captain.
