Captaincy Secrets for High-Stakes Contests

Choosing the right captain isn’t luck — it’s logic, stats, and a bit of boldness...

Captains earn 2x the points — but that power can swing your contest. Look at matchups: avoid captaining players who bat lower or bowl less in shorter formats. Form consistency, batting position, and bowling quota should drive your pick. And sometimes, taking the differential pick pays off big.

Bonus Tip: Check field conditions — spin-friendly tracks = spinner captains.

Underrated All-Rounders You Shouldn't Miss

They bat, they bowl, they save your game when no one else does...

All-rounders are gold in fantasy cricket. But it’s not just about big names. Players like Washington Sundar or Liam Livingstone often go unnoticed but deliver both ends of value. Look for lower credits + dual-role contributions. They provide point insurance — even if one skill fails, the other might cash in.

Keep an eye on team lineups and toss-based adjustments for hidden gems.

How to Master Mega League Strategy

Winning grand contests requires more than luck. Here’s your blueprint...

Don’t copy popular teams. Diversify! Take one or two calculated risks. Use different captain/vice-captain combos than what 80% of users go with. Stack top-heavy or tail-heavy based on game type. Always have a plan B for rain or collapse. Mega leagues reward risk-takers who get it right — once.
