Ignoring Match Conditions
One of the biggest errors fantasy players make is not checking the pitch report and weather before selecting players. Different pitches favor batsmen or bowlers. Without this knowledge your team can underperform badly
Overloading Players from One Team
Many newbies pick too many players from a single team. While it may seem logical if that team is strong but fantasy points depend on individual performance not team wins only. Balance your squad from both sides
Picking Injured or Benched Players
Failing to check final playing XI can cost you big points. Sometimes key players are injured or rested last minute. Always confirm team news close to match start time and remove any doubtful players
Random Captain and Vice-Captain Picks
Captain earns double points vice-captain 1.5x. Choosing these roles randomly is a big mistake. Always pick consistent and match-impacting players for these roles to maximize points
Not Making Multiple Teams
Sticking to only one team combo reduces your chances in big leagues. Making 2 to 3 variations with different players can cover your risks and improve winning odds
Final Advice
Avoiding these common mistakes can take your fantasy game to next level. Always research well plan your picks and keep updating your teams after toss or lineup announcements. Learning from mistakes is key to win more
