How to build a fantasy cricket team

A fantasy cricket team is eleven players from the two sides in one match. Most games ask for at least one wicketkeeper and a spread of batters, all-rounders and bowlers, and cap how many players come from one side. Points come from what each player does on the day: runs, boundaries, wickets, catches and run-outs, with the captain scoring double and the vice-captain one and a half times. The predicted XIs above show who is likely to play before you pick.

Picking a captain and vice-captain

The captain and vice-captain swing a team more than the other nine picks combined. Pick them for ceiling: a top-order batter who faces the most balls, or an all-rounder who scores with bat and ball. Rate my team scores your XI out of 100 against our perfect XI, and 20 of those points are for the captain and vice-captain.

Small league or grand league?

In a small league or a head-to-head, the highest projected team wins most often, so safe picks are fine. In a grand league of thousands of entries you need players and a captain the rest of the field won't have. Build my team asks which you are entering and builds for it, and Advanced makes up to ten different teams at once, with your locks and exclusions in every one.

Cricket lineup builder: roles and balance

Every team keeps a legal lineup on Dream11's rules today: one to eight players in each role (wicketkeepers, batters, all-rounders and bowlers) and no more than ten from one side. Rate my team gives 10 of its 100 points for a legal balance of roles. Dream11's 100-credit budget isn't checked here, so check the credits before you lock a team in.

Cricket Team Builder FAQs

Is the cricket team builder free?

Choosing a match, browsing both squads and rating your team are free: Rate my team scores your XI out of 100 once a day, with no account needed. Building a team from our projections, the perfect XI, the swaps and making several teams at once are part of Cricket Pro.

Which matches can I build a team for?

Every upcoming T20 and one-day match we have projections for, men's and women's, usually from a few days before the start. Teams land once both squads are named. Tests aren't covered yet.

How does Rate my team score my XI?

Out of 100: 70 for your team's projected points against our perfect XI's, 20 for the captain and vice-captain, and 10 for a legal balance of roles. The captain scores double points and the vice-captain one and a half times.

How are the projected points worked out?

From the Statz projection engine, which simulates each match from the ground's scoring, the opposition, recent form and career numbers, then scores every player with Dream11's points system.

When do the teams update?

Before the toss the builder uses each side's likely XI. Once the playing XIs are confirmed, about 30 minutes before the start, the projections re-run and the teams are rebuilt from the players actually named. Entries close when the match starts.

Does it work for Dream11 and other fantasy games?

The points use Dream11's scoring and every team fits its role limits: one to eight of each role and no more than ten from one side. Other fantasy games weight runs, wickets and catches a little differently, but the same players tend to rank near the top in each. We don't model salary or credit budgets.
