According to the Dream 11 rules, "You can add up to 4 Backups to your team and assign a priority order. Fantasy points for only 11 players (who feature in your final team) will be added for every match. Backups can only replace unannounced and substitute players. Backups can only replace players if team creation rules are followed. All replacements happen at match deadline (as per lineup details provided by 3rd party partners)". Gautam Gambhir Silences RCB Fans With ‘Finger on Lips’ Gesture After LSG’s Last-Ball Victory in IPL 2023.

Overall this new rule from Dream11 can be a game-changing one for fantasy players. A lot of times players make Dream11 teams before the actual team list is announced and in some cases, they do not get the time to replace those players who are not playing in the match. By having proper backups, this issue can be now solved.
