Backup Feature
Howzat is at the forefront of technology and innovation in fantasy cricket. In the backup feature, non-playing and substitute players of your fantasy cricket team are replaced by the backup players you select. You can add up to 4 backups to your team and need to assign priorities from B1 to B4, where B1 is the highest and B4 is the lowest. Backup players will replace non-playing players according to the set priority, i.e., B1 first, followed by B2, B3 & B4.
After the lineups are announced, backups will replace non-playing players right at the start of the match. If a backup replaces the captain or vice-captain, he will become the new captain or vice-captain. Replacement takes place sequentially as per team creation rules. Playing backups will be given higher priority than substitute backups.
Backup of a different player type can replace a non-playing player. For example, an all-rounder replaces a batter to ensure that there are players of all categories. After backup replacements, the final 11 players in your team will contribute to your fantasy points. While it is recommended to add backups to a team, it is entirely optional.
Substitution Feature
Substitution is also one of the new features introduced on Howzat to keep the participants more engaged with the game. In substitution, A substitute is a player who replaces another player in a live match. So, if someone on the team gets hurt or can't play, the substitute can take their place on the field. "Substitute Players" was previously known as "Impact Players." Each of the two teams will provide four substitute player names before the toss. Each team will use only 1 of those four players as the substitute.
Suppose you selected the player who the substitute player will replace. In that case, the score earned by the player before being replaced will be considered, and once the player is replaced, the points of the new player are considered.
Point distribution will happen as per the designation of the substitute player, whether he is C, VC, or any other player. If the substitute player & the player getting replaced are not part of your playing 11, your points will remain the same. Using the substitute player feature is not mandatory.
