Team Building Tips

🎯 Research Player Form

Check recent performances, batting/bowling averages, and player fitness before selection. Players in good form are more likely to perform well.

🏟️ Consider Match Conditions

Analyze pitch conditions, weather, and venue history. Some players perform better in specific conditions or venues.

⚖️ Balance Your Team

Don't spend all your budget on star players. Create a balanced team with a mix of consistent performers and potential match-winners.

👨‍✈️ Choose Captain Wisely

Your captain earns double points, so select a player likely to have significant impact. Consider all-rounders for captain role as they can score points in multiple ways.
