Explore Daily Fantasy Sports, Scoring System, and Why It’s Safe & Legal
Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) is a skill-based online game format where users build virtual teams of real-world athletes and score points based on their on-field performances. Unlike traditional season-long fantasy games, DFS is played over short periods — often a single match or tournament day.
In DFS, players test their sports knowledge, strategy, and prediction abilities. The outcome depends on real-time match data — not chance or luck — making it a game of skill, not gambling.
Yes. Fantasy Sports is considered a **Game of Skill** under Indian law. The Supreme Court of India and multiple High Courts have ruled that participating in skill-based games does not fall under gambling or betting.
However, participation is restricted in a few Indian states due to local gaming laws. At Icon Fantasy Space, we follow all legal guidelines and **do not allow users from banned states** to participate.
Restricted States: Assam, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha, Nagaland, and Sikkim.
Fantasy Cricket is a version of DFS where users create a virtual team of real-life cricketers from upcoming matches. Points are awarded based on their actual performance (runs, wickets, catches, etc.).
Example:
You select a team of 11 players for the India vs Australia match. If your chosen players perform well (e.g., Virat Kohli scores a century, Jasprit Bumrah takes 3 wickets), you earn points accordingly. Compete on the leaderboard against others and see how strong your strategy is!
Points are based on real-match performance. Here's a simplified overview:
1 point per run
25 points per wicket
10 points each
Strike Rate, Economy, Milestones
Note: We regularly update our scoring system to ensure fairness and transparency.
Icon Fantasy Space is a skill-based platform for entertainment and learning. We do not involve real money, deposits, or withdrawals.
