• 2 points per six runs scored 4 points for a total of 30 runs scored
• 8 points for a half-century, 16 points for a century.
• -2 points for dismissal at 0 run ( This rules are not applicable for bowlers)

Bowling Points

There are more than 5 ways to earn bowling points. Bowling points can be crucial for your winning chances. Take a look down below.

• Each wicket is worth 25 points, but not run – outs.
• 12 points for each maiden glory.

Points for Good Strike Rate for Batsmen

The batsman’s Strike Rate is also worth points in Dream 11. But don’t forget that if your chosen batsman has a low strike rate for the match, you could lose points as well. The player who is in the squad as a specialist bowler does not receive strike rate points.

• If his Strike Rate is more than 170, you will receive an additional 6 points.

Points for good Economy Rates for Bowlers

Bowler’s economy rates are taken into account for the scoring system in the same way that strike rate is. Bowlers with a good economy earn more points, while those with a poor economy lose points. Only when a bowler has bowled at least two overs, the economy rate is taken into account for Dream11 points.
