Here’s All You Need To Know About Fantasy Cricket

The unique concept of playing fantasy competitions for tournaments of their favorite games is gaining attention from thrill-seekers worldwide these days. The most popular variant of the game is fantasy Cricket. Without stepping out of your home, you can actively participate in T20 and ODI formats of major Cricket tournaments such as IPL (Indian Premier League) and ICC World Cup.

Fantasy Football is another variant of fantasy sports that is gradually growing in popularity in the country. You can play fantasy contests for major Football tournaments such as UEFA Champions League, EFL (English Football League), and FIFA World Cup.

To play Fantasy Cricket, you need to choose the best players who can score maximum points for your team. It requires extensive research and analysis of the statistics about players’ past performances and current form. As much knowledge, acumen, and strategy you demonstrate in the game, as much your chances of picking the right players for your team improve.

To add players to your team, you get a budget of 100 credits for each match. Big names are expensive and as the budget limit cannot be exceeded, you have to utilize your game knowledge to create a balanced team including established players as well as new but consistent performers who can earn maximum score for your team.

Here are a few of the reasons why we consider fantasy sports is the best game to sharpen your analytical skills as well as improve your focus and problem-solving ability.

  • Fantasy sports help players in getting connected with their favorite games. Playing a fantasy game requires thorough collecting information about pitch/ground present condition, results of past matches that happened on that field, weather report, team updates, etc. to ensure making calculated decisions. It requires observation and analysis of performance statistics. You need to carefully choose the players to create your dream team and enter a league to compete against other teams. A team earns points on the basis of the performances of the players in real matches. The team with the maximum points wins the match and the team owner gets rewarded with huge cash prizes.

  • How fantasy sports are different from chance-based games?This is a commonly asked question by gaming enthusiasts who want to join fantasy sports but are unclear about the nature of the game. In a chance-based game, luck plays an important role in determining the winner. In a skill-based game, your winning depends on your ability to think critically and make quick decisions. Just like Poker, Fantasy Cricket is a game of strategic thinking. In Poker, the player has to constantly work on modifying his strategies as per the changing situation on the table. As you cannot ascertain your fellow players’ hand strength and how they are going to make their next move, you have to make the decision of joining the pot or folding the hand on the basis of your understanding of your opponent’s style of play. There is no scope of emotions in the game. A good player never hesitates in folding a strong hand if he finds that the odds are not in his favor. Similarly, in fantasy Cricket, as you need to work as a team manager, you have to keep favoritism aside and choose players as per their current performance, not their star status. You need to keep an eye on those players who are not popular but carry a great potential of playing well under pressure and scoring big for the team. As the element of “chance” is not involved, fantasy sports are declared as a game of skills and exempted from the provision of The Public Gaming Act 1867.

  • The participant chooses a practice or real money league to play against other teams. To choose the best league for the match which suits his budget, he needs to consider the joining fee, the number of total participants, scoring system, total prize pool, etc. Critical thinking, calculations, and decision-making skills are required to compare these features with other leagues. As you participate in leagues to compete against other fantasy Cricket team owners, it becomes a battle of knowledge and adroitness. It is also true that caution is necessary while playing paid leagues. As you invest real money in the game, you need to carefully draft your dream team and pick the players as per their present performance and ability to perform under pressure.

If you are a new Poker player, you can participate in freeroll games to improve your understanding of the basics of the game such as hand ranking, betting actions, table position, bankroll management, etc. Participating in freeroll tournaments is the best way to sharpen your skills and win fabulous prizes. There are lots of blogs, articles, and videos available to help you get in-depth knowledge of the basics. In fantasy Cricket, after creating the team, you need to join a practice or paid league to compete against other teams. Players who are playing for the first time can start with the practice leagues to learn how to pick players and create a team without making any investments from your pockets before moving on to join a public league.
