Dream 11 ICC Official Season Long Men's CWC 2023 Fantasy Game - Tips & Tricks, Differential Players

As we saw in the previous post, ICC has launched the Official Season Long ODI WC Cricket World Cup 2023 Fantasy Game powered by Dream11.

Dream 11 Fantasy Team Selection

In this post I will be giving a few tips with which you can start the game

Team Composition

Start with a balanced squad of 443 which means 4 players from England v New Zealand, 4 players from Pakistan v Netherlands and 3 players from Bangladesh v Afghanistan.

Alternatively, you can go for 542 with 5 from the first match or the second match depending on your risk appetite.

This year we've a total of 135 transfers for the first 45 matches. So starting in such a fashion would mean you'll have around 145 transfers for 42 matches which will help you later.

Picking Nailed Players

At the beginning of any long tournament, when you're picking players from future matches too, it's always a safe option to go with players who are a surety to start and not take many risks with 50-50 players as it will not lead to wasted transfers.

Now let's look at Top 10 Differential (less then 10% owned) players to start the game

Harry Brook 1.0%

  • The English wonder kid. Explosive Batsmen
  • In Good form

Will Young 10.1%

  • In decent form. Should open the innings. 
  • Netherlands in a few days.

Glenn Phillips 7.6%

  • Explosive middle order batsman
  • Nailed
  • Bowls part time spin

Liam Livingstone 8.2%

  • Explosive Finisher
  • Bowls a few overs

Fakhar Zaman 1.0%

  • Opens the innings
  • Faces Netherlands
  • Not in great form but he can be very explosive

Haris Rauf 5.9%

  • Quickest bowler in Pak line up
  • Not in greatest form but the Dutch might struggle against that pace

Mehidy Hasan 2.3%

  • Very good spin bowler
  • Bats in the top order now

Shadab Khan 3.0%

  • Vice Captain so nailed
  • Faces Netherlands who might struggle against leg spin
  • Can bat too

Ish Sodhi 8.9%

  • Main spinner in the Kiwi line up
  • Picks wickets regularly

Litton Das 2.0%

  • Opens the innings
  • In great form
  • Nailed

These were some of the hidden gems I think could do well at the beginning.

Do let me know what players you're looking at?
