Tips & Tricks To Score More in IPL Fantasy League

One can say IPL fantasy league are merely for the lucky ones however you can make your own fortune if you just continue to keep few things in your head while selecting your daily fantasy cricket squad.

KNOW THE RULES:

It is the 1st and most essential criteria before you make a team in any kind of T20 cricket games as if point system, budget and limitations on team formation are not fully very clear to you then you definitely will be always one step behind the others.

BUDGET CONSTRAINT:

IPL fantasy leagues are certainly not that easy to make as it appears like from the outside and the most significant reason for it is the budget constraint. You cannot simply go for all the players you want and rest due to this. So the easiest way out is to take a few big players and also a few young talented ones with lower price and blend them up flawlessly.

TEAM FORMATIONS:

We are all aware that 2 batsmen 2 bowlers one all-rounder and one wicketkeeper are set for any team so the real point to think about is about other 5 players. All-rounders are the most effective option one can think about but as it is just one game league it will very difficult to get 4 or 5 quality of them with the budget, therefore, try to take a couple of impact cricketers who can give a few valuable points by their strike rates or fielding.

POINT SYSTEM:

In IPL Fantasy leagues each and every run, every ball and everything counts, therefore, their will plenty of points to play for. Our advice would be to take wicket choosing bowlers or the bowlers who you think can perform in crunch times, fielders who field in the catching positions, which may be slips or points during the power play overs or maybe the ones who field in the boundary lines in the slog overs and batsmen who’ll play in top of the order or those who will come late and smack few fours and sixes.

Additionally, there are a few other things to bear in mind as it is a game of cricket in the end.

PITCH AND GROUND CONDITION:

Horses for courses would be the way to go in IPL and for doing that effectively you need to know the pitch and ground shape first as no one would want to be in a position where he or she has 4 spinners in his or her IPL T20 fantasy cricket squad in a match at a modest ground with where the spinners are going for a lot.

RECENT PERFORMANCE:

T20 is a sport of energy so always keep an eye open and decide on those players who are performing in the field.

LAST BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE:

Pick and validate your team as late as is possible as there is an option at 11Wickets to pick your team for a match even after the toss. At 11Wickets, you can select your team even after the toss until the moment when the players from both the team start coming to the field and the match begins. This will help you pick all 11 players who are playing and select the players individually.
