www IPL com- Fantasy games & IPL online

With IPL fever gripping in, there are lots of things that can keep you busy other than you being glued to your idiot box. In internet age I firmly believe that IPL season can be enjoyed more on Internet than on your TV sets. With loads of information on offering on IPL matches, IPL results or for that matter overall IPL Statistics, you are never out of steam for any discussion or for that matter any heated debate on IPL. What more??? If tactical, you also get an opportunity to earn rewards from Fantasy games. Ok hands down for the last year fantasy game winners, but then I am supposed to write for beginners also.


So what’s Fantasy game all about?


There are a host of websites offering awards for participating in Fantasy games like Fantasy cricket league organized by them. All you need to do is register for an account with any of the website from the list below and then you are the boss. You can select your own team, manage it, swap players, pick or drop a player as the tournament progresses and what not. But there is definitely a catch. You are given a definite credit points to start you team with. Good established players come at high cost, while the newer ones come cheap. In case you decide to take all good performing players, you may not even be able to complete all 16 players for you team (Keeping extras in mind) or if you choose all new players, you may be left with lots of funds in hand but your selected players may end up being rested for the entire tournament. So you need to be judicious in point distribution and do tactical tradeoffs as and when required.
Now based on the team you have chosen you’ll be awarded points at the end of every match you your chosen player/players have played. A sample point tally from one such website is below:

The competition comes from the other people who are doing the same thing and scoring points as you are. The tactical skills in any Fantasy game is challenged to the max by web administrators as they develop algorithms to keep a track of price of any player based on his performance in the tournament. Off course, the price increases if a player is performing well in the tournament and at the same time attracts lots of bids from other managers.
Lot said about it. It’s now your turn to visit the Fantasy game website yourself website yourself. Following are the websites that have the facility of Fantasy Games:
