As playing Fantasy Cricket is a popular phenomenon these days more and more people are registering themselves on various online fantasy cricket sites. However, often players who start playing the game discontinue and end up complaining about not winning even for a single time. As much as it can be true sometimes, Fantasy Cricket nonetheless is not much of a tough job and one can easily emerge as the winner by following this basic guide on what to do and what not to do in order to play fantasy cricket.
Study the pitch properly Undoubtedly, the pitch conditions are one of the biggest determinants of the game’s outcome. Pitches usually influences the way batting and bowling is done so is a very important factor. One simple way of knowing how the pitch would behave is by tuning into the match telecast approx 45 minutes before the game and listen to what the pitch experts have to say, and then do exacly the opposite of it. If they label the pitch as a turner, get in a few quicks, if they label it as a batting heaven, get in a few spinners. Whatever Decision you make, do it only after knowing the pitch. Make Changes only after the Toss and after seeing the Team sheets The greatest tactic here in order to play online cricket games is to be PATIENT. Focus primarily on studying the team sheets of the players who will definitely be playing on that day’s match. This could be the real deal breaker because especially in case of IPL, with the 4 overseas player rule, teams tend to try out a lot of different combinations throughout the tournament and you wouldn’t want to invest money in a player and see him warming the bench, would you? Also, the toss plays a major role in selecting who your captain will be. For example: In most cases I would captain a bowler only if he is bowling first, as in the second innings it might happen that the game finishes before the allotted 20 overs and thus he might end up not bowling his full quota of 4 overs. Also, if you want to make a number 4 batsman as your captain, do so only if his team bats first. So, if you are wondering whom to captain between Kohli and AB De Villiers, always captain Kohli when batting second and captain ABD when batting first. Keep the schedule handy, always In order to set up a balanced side, you need to follow the schedule really well, in order to see if a team plays a couple(or even three, or even four) games in a short span of time, i.e For eg: If Sunrisers Hyderabad plays three matches in the space of 5 days, you need to stack up your team with Sunrisers Hyderabad players to reap maximum benefits out of the selected players before you opt to transfer them out(There could be exceptions to this case, and I’ll keep updating you about it as and when we go along). When opting for batsmen, put all your money on the Top 3 The T20 format provides only the top 3 batsmen (sometimes the top 4) to go on and make a score of 75 plus. So, there is no point investing money in a number 5 specialist batsman, as more often than not he’ll come to the crease in the 15th over and will face a maximum of 15 balls. You can’t leave things to chance here, and so opt for batsmen who would be in line to face the maximum number of deliveries(unless of course if it’s ABD). Consider More number of Death Bowlers in your Team Remember, every wicket that a bowler takes has the same number of points. The IPL Fantasy league does not discriminate between batsmen, and thus if you take Kohli’s wicket or Nehra’s, you’ll end up getting the same number of points. So, it is only logical that you opt for bowlers who get to bowl at least two overs in the death, so that they can chip away with a few cheap wickets. Invest in selecting big players You often see people stacking their teams up with players that not many would have picked, just to form a ‘different’ team. And that is where they start digging their own grave. You need to have the obvious match winners in your side, or else you’ll fall too far behind. The differentiator theory has to be used miserly and has to be used on a maximum of one player in 3-4 matches. Follow various Fantasy Betting Tips sites Last but not the least, to find success in Fantasy cricket study various sites, that offer strategies for successfully playing the game. Undoubtedly, more the knowledge, the more will be your chances of winning. Good Luck!
