Dream11 Team Builder
AI-projected Dream11 teams for upcoming cricket matches — IPL, PSL, BBL, and international T20s included.
How it works
Optimal team: one AI-projected XI per match, with captain and vice-captain marked. Part of Cricket Pro.
Build my team — A short questionnaire (league type, predicted winner, risk profile) tailors a lineup to your inputs.
Rate my team — Pick your XI, set a captain and vice-captain. Get a 0–100 rating with suggested swaps and captaincy tips.
Projections come from the Statz cricket engine — venue factors, opposition ratings, recent form, and per-player career stats. Currently covers T20 cricket; ODI and Test support to follow.
Each lineup shows the captain, vice-captain, and the reasoning behind every pick.
How to pick a winning Dream11 team
A Dream11 team is 11 players picked from both sides inside a 100-credit budget, with role limits (one to eight each of wicketkeepers, batters, all-rounders and bowlers) and a maximum of ten from either side. The edge is spending those credits where the projected points are, not on the biggest names. Our Optimal team, part of Cricket Pro, does exactly that - an AI-projected XI for every match, built on the same Statz projections that power our match model - while Build and Rate My Team let you tailor or score your own. Pick a match above to start.
Dream11 captain and vice-captain picks
The captain scores 2x points and the vice-captain 1.5x, so those two choices swing more than the other nine combined. Pick them for ceiling, not safety: a top-order batter who faces the most balls, or an all-rounder who contributes with bat and ball, carries the highest projected points. Every Statz team marks a captain and vice-captain with the projected points behind the call, and Rate My Team suggests captaincy swaps for an XI you have already built.
Grand League vs Small League teams
Contest type should change your team. In a Small League of a few entries, safe template picks cash most often, so lean on the highest-floor players both sides rely on. In a Grand League of thousands of entries you need differentials - a lower-owned punt or an off-template captain - because a template team cannot beat a huge field. Once the XIs are confirmed we broadcast a revised Small and Grand League pair free to the Statz Dream11 Telegram.
Frequently asked questions
How do I pick the best Dream11 team?
Build 11 players from both sides inside the 100-credit budget, spending those credits where the projected points are rather than on the biggest names. Respect the role limits, get your captain and vice-captain right, and match the risk to your contest. The Statz Optimal team does all of that for every match with Cricket Pro.
Who should I make captain in Dream11?
Captain for ceiling, not safety - the captain scores double points and the vice-captain 1.5x, so pick a player with a genuinely high projected score, usually a top-order batter who faces the most balls or an all-rounder who contributes with bat and ball. Every Statz team marks a captain and vice-captain with the projected points behind the call.
What is the difference between a Grand League and Small League team?
A Small League is a handful of entries where safe, high-floor template picks cash most often. A Grand League is thousands of entries where you need differentials - lower-owned players or an off-template captain - because a template team cannot beat a huge field. Statz broadcasts a revised Small and Grand League pair once the XIs are confirmed.
Are Statz Dream11 teams free?
The pre-toss team for upcoming matches is posted free on the Statz Dream11 Telegram, with a revised Small and Grand League pair once the line-ups are confirmed. On the site, the full team with captain and vice-captain, the alternative teams, the reasoning and the build and rate tools are part of Cricket Pro.
How are the Dream11 teams predicted?
They are built on the Statz cricket projection engine, which simulates each match from venue factors, opposition strength, recent form and per-player career stats to project points for every player. The same projections drive our match win probabilities, so the fantasy picks and the match model tell one consistent story.
