Dream11 at a glance
Dream11 is a fantasy-sports platform built around real sporting events. Before a match, users select a virtual team of real players within the rules of the game. Points are then awarded according to how those players perform in the actual match. Users compete against other fantasy teams in free or paid contests. Cricket is its most important sport, although the platform has also offered fantasy games for sports such as football, basketball and kabaddi. Dream11 was founded in Mumbai in 2008 by Harsh Jain and Bhavit Sheth. It is part of Dream Sports, which has built and invested in other sports businesses around areas such as sports content and experiences. Dream11's growth turned fantasy sports from a relatively small online activity into a large consumer internet category in India.
