Why this hub exists
Most fantasy cricket content is recycled press releases. Rupee11 Fantasy publishes primary research — squad audits, captain matrices, venue splits — and we link every claim back to a source.
Responsible Play Hub
Helplines, deposit caps and self-exclusion — built in.
A short, plainly-written guide to staying in control of your play. Fantasy cricket is entertainment; if it stops being fun, here's exactly what to do.
18+ · Eligible Indian states · Always verify current terms on the official app before playing.

Fantasy cricket is entertainment. The moment it stops being fun, that's the moment to step back.
Deep Dive
The full picture on responsible play.
Below is the long-form editorial. We refresh this section weekly; the change-log at the bottom lists what moved and when.
Responsible play is not a compliance box for us. It's the foundation of the product. A fantasy cricket platform that doesn't actively help users stay in control is, by definition, exploitative.
The companion app bakes in deposit caps, self-exclusion, reality checks and helpline access. None of these features are hidden behind a menu — they're one tap from the home screen.
If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling-related harm, call iCall at 9152987821 (Indian helpline, English/Hindi). Gambling Therapy offers international support at gamblingtherapy.org.
What we're watching this week

Data sources
Where Rupee11 Fantasy gets its numbers.
The Rupee11 Fantasy editorial desk uses a layered data pipeline. Primary sources feed the live scoreboard; secondary sources feed the prediction models; manual audit feeds the published guides. Below is the full list of sources we cite, with the freshness window for each.
| Source | Type | Freshness | Used for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Official IPL feed | Primary | Real-time | Live scores, squads, scorecards |
| BCCI press releases | Primary | Within 60 minutes | Squad announcements, replacements |
| Franchise verified handles | Primary | Real-time | Playing XI at toss |
| CricViz / Cricmetric | Secondary | 15-min delay | Expected wickets, run projections |
| Pitch report (venue data) | Secondary | 24 hours before match | Average score, pace vs spin |
| AccuWeather hourly forecast | Tertiary | 6-hour refresh | DLS probability, rain delay |
| Internal Rupee11 audit | Audit | Weekly | Reconciliation, error correction |
When sources conflict — for example when a franchise posts a different playing XI than the broadcaster shows — the Rupee11 Fantasy editorial desk defers to the franchise's verified social handle and posts a correction notice in the changelog at the bottom of the affected page. We do not silently overwrite mistakes.
State-wise eligibility
Where Rupee11 Fantasy is legal — and where it is not.
Fantasy cricket is a game of skill and is legal across most of India. However, six states currently restrict paid fantasy contests for residents. Below is the current map, verified weekly against state gazette notifications and published regulatory advisories.
| State | Paid contests | Free contests | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Andhra Pradesh | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | State gaming act prohibits paid entry |
| Assam | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | See responsible play for details |
| Tamil Nadu | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | TN Gaming Act 2022 |
| Telangana | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | TS Gaming Act 1974 |
| Odisha | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | Odisha Police Act |
| Sikkim | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | Sikkim Casino Act |
| Nagaland | ❌ Restricted | ✅ Allowed | Nagaland Act 2016 |
| All other Indian states & UTs | ✅ Allowed | ✅ Allowed | Full app access |
If you are a resident of an ineligible state but downloaded the app while physically located in an eligible state, the Rupee11 Fantasy app uses your KYC documents (Aadhaar / PAN / Voter ID) to determine eligibility — not your current GPS location. This is the most conservative interpretation of state law and matches the approach taken by every major Indian fantasy platform.
FAQ
Rupee11 Fantasy reader questions.
Common questions received by the editorial desk via the contact page, grouped and answered.
How does Rupee11 Fantasy make money?
Rupee11 Fantasy operates on a commission model — typically 8-15% of the total entry pool of a contest, which is the industry norm. We also earn revenue via the content partnership with 10bet (see disclosure) and via affiliate links to payment partners. Editorial independence is governed by our methodology page.
Is my data safe on the Rupee11 Fantasy app?
Yes. We store KYC documents in encrypted form, never share them with third parties except as required by law, and we delete your account data within 30 days of account closure. Our full data-handling policy is on the privacy page.
Can I set a monthly deposit cap?
Yes. The Rupee11 Fantasy app has a deposit-limit feature in the responsible-play section of your account settings. You can set a daily, weekly or monthly cap, and the app will block deposits that exceed it. Limits can be tightened immediately but can only be loosened after a 24-hour cooling-off period.
What is the 10bet exclusive offer for Rupee11 users?
New Rupee11 Fantasy users who register on 10bet via our referral link receive a ₹500 free bet in their 10bet account, in addition to the standard ₹5,000 welcome bonus on Rupee11 Fantasy. The two offers are independent — you can claim one without the other.
How do I contact the editorial desk?
Reach the editorial desk via the contact page, by email at [email protected], or via the in-app feedback form. For account-specific issues (deposits, withdrawals, KYC), use the in-app support chat — average response time is under 4 minutes during IPL match hours.

FAQ · Deep
Six more questions readers ask.
Beyond the basic questions, the Rupee11 Fantasy editorial desk receives dozens of deeper technical questions about fantasy cricket strategy, app mechanics and the editorial process. Below are the six most common.
What is the Rupee11 Fantasy app's minimum app version?
The Rupee11 Fantasy companion app requires iOS 13.0 or later (iPhone 6s and newer), and Android 7.0 (Nougat) or later. The app is roughly 28 MB on Android and 32 MB on iOS. Older versions of the app receive security updates for 24 months after release.
Can I edit my fantasy team after the toss?
No. Your team is locked at toss. The only exception is the "impact player" bench slot — you can substitute the 11th player for any of the starting XI up to 6 overs into the match, provided the substituted player is from the same franchise.
How are ties handled in fantasy contests?
In head-to-head contests, ties are broken by the player who locked their team earlier. In larger contests, ties are broken by the player's total captain points (then vice-captain points). Full tie-break rules are published in the contest rules section of the Rupee11 Fantasy app.
Are there contests specifically for new users?
Yes. The Rupee11 Fantasy app runs "new user" contests that only accept accounts less than 30 days old. These contests have softer competition and lower entry fees (₹3–₹100). 50 free contest entries are also provided to new users at signup.
What is the maximum number of teams I can enter in one contest?
Up to 11 teams per contest. The Rupee11 Fantasy app allows multiple team entries on most contests (head-to-head is single-entry only). Multiple-team entry is most useful in mega contests where you can deploy different strategies.
How does the Rupee11 Fantasy app calculate live fantasy points?
Live points are calculated using the official IPL ball-by-ball feed. Every ball's outcome (run, wicket, extras) is converted to fantasy points using the audited matrix on our points system page. Updates typically appear within 5-10 seconds of the on-field event.
Competition
