Tips & Tricks

• A player sitting outside cannot perform
  So make sure you choose only those players who are going to be in the playing XI. But the good thing is that at (game name), you can now edit your team till the last minute before the match starts.
• Look for batsmen in batting positions 1-2-3 in both the teams.
  The first 3-4 batsmen from both the teams get the maximum opportunity to score runs. And that is the reason why someone like Kohli or Rohit Sharma has more runs than a player like Dhoni.
• Choose players based on their form from previous matches.
  Selecting a player in form will benefit you more compared to selecting a player who isn't. Also, see how a player has performed against the same opponent or on the same pitch in past matches.
• Check the pitch & weather report.
  Check if it is a bowling or batting friendly pitch? Is the average score on that pitch above 190 in T20s? This will help you decide if you want to go for a batsmen heavy team or a bowler heavy team.
• Bowler's economy doesn't matter too much. Wickets do.
  So pick your bowlers who are wicket takers. For example, bowlers like Piyush Chawla or Imran Tahir will give you more points, because they take a lot of wickets even if they get hit a lot.
  Once you have selected your "Best XI", it's time to choose a captain and a vice-captain for your team.
• As they say, a captain should lead by example
  In fantasy cricket, whatever points your captain makes will be doubled and your vice-captain will get 1.5 times his points.
