Cricket is a dynamic bat-and-ball game played between two teams, typically consisting of 11 players each. It's governed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and has multiple formats, including Test (five days), One Day Internationals (50 overs), and T20 (20 overs).

Basic Rules of Cricket for HotFantasies Users

• 1. Teams & Players: Each team has 11 players. In Fantasy Cricket, you will create a virtual team by selecting real players from actual matches.
• 2. Innings: Each match consists of one or two innings. In limited overs formats, each team bats for a fixed number of overs (20 or 50). In Tests, teams bat until ten players are out or the predetermined time elapses.
• 3. Scoring Runs: Runs are scored when the batsmen run between the wickets or when the ball reaches the boundary. A four is scored when the ball crosses the boundary after touching the ground, while a six is when the ball crosses the boundary without touching the ground.
• 4. Dismissals: Players can be dismissed in multiple ways, including being bowled, caught, leg before wicket (LBW), and run out. Understanding these can help in selecting players who are less likely to get out.
• 5. Bowling & Fielding: The bowling team attempts to restrict the number of runs scored and dismiss batsmen. Bowlers deliver the ball in overs, with six legal deliveries in each over.
• 6. Fantasy Team Selection: Users can select players based on their form, pitch conditions, and opposition strength. Picking a balanced team with a mix of batsmen, bowlers, all-rounders, and wicketkeepers is vital.
• 7. Points System: Points are awarded based on player performances, including runs scored, wickets taken, catches, stumpings, and other contributions. It is essential to understand the specific point system used in HotFantasies for optimal team selection.
• 8. Captain and Vice-Captain: Users can assign a captain and vice-captain for extra points. The captain typically earns double points for his performance, while the vice-captain earns 1.5 times the points.
• 9. Leaderboards: Compete against other users and track your performance on the leaderboard. Regularly updating your team based on injuries, form, and matches will enhance your chances of winning.

By understanding these rules and keeping abreast of player performances, users can maximize their enjoyment and success in HotFantasies. Happy playing!
