In fantasy cricket, everyone has access to the same player pool—but your Captain (2x points) and Vice-Captain (1.5x points) picks can make all the difference between finishing in the top 10 or not winning at all.

On RadhaExchange, where contests are tight and user skill levels are high, smart C/VC selection can dramatically boost your score. In this blog, we’ll show you how to pick the right Captain and Vice-Captain, along with examples and data-backed tips.

🎯 Why C/VC Picks Matter So Much

Let’s say:

• Your captain scores 80 points × 2 = 160
• Your vice-captain scores 60 points × 1.5 = 90
  That’s 250 points from just two players—often 40–50% of your team’s total score!

One good (or bad) captain pick can make or break your fantasy day.

🧠 How to Pick the Right Captain

✅ Go for:

• All-rounders who bowl + bat (double chances to earn)
• In-form batters playing on batting-friendly pitches
• Bowlers in low-scoring games or slow tracks

❌ Avoid:

• Players returning from injury
• Top-order batters on swing-friendly pitches
• Part-time bowlers unlikely to complete their quota

Example Picks:

• Hardik Pandya (T20)
• Jos Buttler (batting first)
• Rashid Khan (slow pitch)

🧠 How to Pick the Right Vice-Captain

Your VC should be:

• A consistent performer
• A safer option if your captain is slightly risky
• Someone likely to at least give a baseline of 40–50 points

Example Strategy:
If your captain is an all-rounder, make a top-order batter your vice-captain to hedge risks.

🧾 Real-World Example

Match: MI vs RR

• You picked Hardik Pandya (C) and Boult (VC)
• Pandya scores 40 runs + takes 2 wickets = 100 pts × 2 = 200
• Boult takes 3 wickets = 90 pts × 1.5 = 135

Result: Just your C/VC gives 335 points — likely enough to win even a mega contest.

📌 Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Blindly choosing star players without match context
• Picking openers in swing-friendly conditions
