Your first job is to build a squad of at least 15 players, while remaining within the salary cap. Do you design a big squad of bargain players, or a small group of superstars and can you withstand the ups and downs of the season?
Each gameweek, you'll pick your captain and your starting 11 players to try and maximise your side's points, based on the players' real life performances. There is a minimum required number of players that you must select in each position for your starting team.
As the competition goes on, you can manage your squad by buying and selling players in between gameweeks.
BY THE FANS, FOR THE FANS, AND ALWAYS FREE TO PLAY.
Pick from the best players in the world and make transfers in and out as their values move up or down through the season, based on performances and selection. There are limits on the number of players you can have from each club side and you'll need to be able to cover all positions.
Can your squad weather injuries, international duty and gameweek byes? Do you pick based on reputation and your cricketing heroes, or take a punt on the unknown wonderkid? These are decisions that could make or break your campaign.
