Dream11 is India\“s largest fantasy sports platform that allows users to play fantasy cricket, football, kabaddi, basketball, and hockey. Founded in 2008 by Harsh Jain and Bhavit Sheth, the platform has revolutionized the way Indian sports fans engage with their favorite games.
The platform operates on a simple concept where users can create their own virtual teams of real players from upcoming matches. Users select players within a specified budget and earn points based on the actual performance of these players in real-life matches. The better your selected players perform, the more points your fantasy team accumulates.
Dream11 offers both free and paid contests, with the paid contests offering cash prizes to winners. The platform has gained massive popularity in India, especially during cricket seasons, with millions of users participating in fantasy leagues for IPL, international cricket matches, and other sporting events.
What makes Dream11 particularly successful in the Indian market is its understanding of local sports preferences and its mobile-first approach. The platform is available as a user-friendly mobile app and website, making it accessible to users across different regions of India.
Dream11 has also played a significant role in popularizing other sports in India beyond cricket, such as kabaddi and football, by creating fantasy leagues for Pro Kabaddi League and Indian Super League matches. |
