India's Favourite Fantasy Sports Platform

Dream11 is India's most popular fantasy sports platform, founded in 2008 and now serving over 200 million users. Players create virtual teams of real athletes across cricket (IPL, BBL, CPL, WPL, bilateral series), football (ISL, Premier League, La Liga, UEFA Champions League), NBA, Kabaddi, and more — earning points and winning real cash prizes.

Yes. The Supreme Court of India has ruled that fantasy sports with significant skill element — like Dream11 — constitute a game of skill and are therefore legal. However, residents of Assam, Odisha, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Nagaland, Sikkim, and Tamil Nadu are prohibited from playing on Dream11 due to state-specific laws.

Select an upcoming match → build a fantasy team of up to 11 real players within a credit budget while respecting role caps (1 WK, 3-6 BAT, 1-4 AR, 3-6 BOWL) → assign a Captain (earns 2× fantasy points) and Vice-Captain (1.5× points) → join contests and compete for rankings. Points are calculated from the official live match scorecard after play concludes.

Download the official Dream11 APK only from dream11.com or trusted APK mirrors such as APKPure.ink. Always verify the app package name is 'com.dream11.fantasy.cricket' and check permissions before installing. Avoid third-party APK bundles that may contain modified code.

Download the Dream11 app, tap 'Sign Up', enter your mobile number, verify via OTP, set a password, and complete your profile. You must also complete KYC (PAN card + bank account) before you can withdraw any winnings. New users receive a bonus on their first deposit.

Study player form, pitch conditions, and weather before selecting your squad. Prioritise all-rounders (AR) who earn points with both bat and ball. In smaller contests, contrarian team selection can yield an edge. Start with low-entry (₹10-₹25) contests to build confidence before entering mega leagues where professional players compete.

Dream11 offers new users a first-deposit bonus, typically matching 100% of the deposit amount up to a capped value (the exact cap and percentage change with each campaign). Bonus funds are non-withdrawable but winnings generated from bonus entries are fully withdrawable after the contest concludes.

Ensure KYC is complete (PAN + bank account verified). Go to Profile → My Balance → Withdraw. Enter the amount (minimum ₹200), confirm your bank account, and submit. Withdrawals are processed within 24-48 hours for most users. There is no withdrawal fee.

The minimum deposit on Dream11 is ₹100 via UPI, debit card, or net banking. Some payment options such as credit card or wallet top-up may have a higher minimum. Deposits are credited instantly upon payment confirmation.

The available sports and contests rotate daily based on the international schedule.

Dream11 is currently unavailable to users residing in Assam, Odisha, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Nagaland, Sikkim, and Tamil Nadu due to state-specific fantasy sports regulations. Users attempting to access Dream11 from these states may have their accounts restricted.
