Other Important Points
 
Warm-up matches:
  • For instances where a chasing team decides to keep batting even after winning a match or stop playing before achieving the target, our Fantasy Points System will follow the final scorecard, and points will be awarded based on the total runs scored.
  • If a player bats more than once in an innings, they will get points for their best knock. However, in such cases, bowlers and fielders will get points for all the dismissals and events, even if they get the same player out more than once.
Batting
  • Any player scoring a century will only get points for the century. No points will be awarded as their 30 Run Bonus or Half-century Bonus. Additionally, no points are awarded for centuries in T10 matches.
  • If any runs are scored on an overthrow, points for those runs will be credited to the batter on strike for that ball. However, if the overthrow goes for a boundary, the batter will not receive extra Boundary Bonus points.
  • Negative points for low batting Strike Rates are only applicable for individual Strike Rates of 70 runs per 100 balls or below.
Fielding
  • Players taking more than 3 catches will also get 4 points as 3 Catch Bonus. For example, if a player takes 6 catches, he/she will not get 8 points.
  • A direct hit is inflicted by the fielder who is the only one to touch the ball after the batter faces the delivery. In all other cases, points will be awarded only to the last 2 fielders who touch the ball.
Rules for Substitutes
  • The announced Concussion, X-Factor, or Impact Player substitutes will get 0 points for being announced. Out of the announced substitutes, ONLY those that will play will be awarded 4 points in addition to the points for all the contributions they make as per the Fantasy Point System.
  • Substitutes apart from Concussion, X-Factor, or Impact Player substitutes will not be awarded points for any contribution they make.
  • If a player gets replaced by an X-Factor or Impact Player substitute, but later comes back on the field, they will get points for their contributions. However, if a player, who was not a part of the announced lineups, comes to the field as a substitute, they will not get points for any of their contributions (except Concussion, X-Factor, and Impact Player substitutes).
In the Starting 11
  • If a player is announced in the starting eleven of a team but later is unable to start the match, he/she will not score any points. The player who plays as the replacement, however, will earn points for the match (including starting points).
More Points
  • A player who has been transferred from one team to the other might still be available for selection for his older team until the next scheduled team update on Dream11. However, no points will be attributed to the player in such a situation.
  • No points will be awarded for any actions during a Super Over or a Super Five.
  • Data is provided by reliable sources and once the match has been marked as completed i.e., winners have been declared, no further adjustments will be made. Points awarded live in-game are subject to change as long as the match status is 'In progress' or 'Waiting for review'.
  • More than 11 players from either team are allowed to play in Other OD/Other T20/Other Test matches.
  • No points will be awarded for strike rate, economy rate, or maidens in 'The Hundred'.
