Team Management

This is where you get to select a team of your choice. You will see the complete list of teams and players participating in the matches, from this list you can choose 11 players that you think will perform the best.

Each of them will readily play for your team but they come at a price. To begin with you are provided a credit pool and you can buy your team using these credit points. The cost of each player has been determined by our panel of experts and is also shown in credits.

Whenever you take on a player in your team the amount you pay for him gets debited from your credit pool. When you remove a player from your list the cost gets credited back. But there is a catch - the player costing is 'Dynamic', which means the cost of the player changes with his performance in every match - he does well, the cost goes up and he doesn't do well the cost goes down! To select your team, start by choosing the formation you would like for your team. You can choose from the following:


4-4-2 (4 defenders, 4 midfielders, 2 forwards) plus a goal keeper
4-3-3 (4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 3 forwards) plus a goal keeper
3-4-3 (3 defenders, 4 midfielders, 3 forwards) plus a goal keeper

Next, simply drag and drop players from the list to the correct position on to the play field. Just make sure the player positions are correct else they won't stay!

To remove any player from your selection, click the 'remove player' link.

Save your changes and submit the team. Make sure you select your team at least one hour before the start of the first match every day so that the changes can become effective and your team can participate.

Transfers

You, as the manager have a right to unlimited transfers - but you cannot use more credits than you have in your kitty. Further, Indian Fantasy Football is played on a daily basis. To become effective the transfers have to be done at least one hour before the start of the first match of the day. The team thus saved becomes your active team for that day's matches.

On transfer of players, the current market value of player will be applicable and an equal amount of money will be either credited or debited from your kitty.

Transfer window for every week will open once all matches of that day have been played. During the game
