Important points: Success in building the Dream XI team completely depends on your decisions. Choosing the right team takes time and thought, and you will be solely responsible as a result. Try to prepare the final team only after the toss, so that you can get correct and accurate results. During this time, you have to give importance to the pitch, weather and form and role of the players. If you are making a team for T20 match, then maximum all-rounders and upper order batsmen can be included in it. Apart from this, bets can also be played on the bowlers bowling in power play and death overs. To get the best rank, you should select such players who are less selected by the users, but those players have the potential to do something big. Such a player can prove to be a big trump card for your team and can take your team's rank to the highest position.
