Can I change my Fantasy XI team after it’s locked?
⚡Quick Answer
No. Your Fantasy XI locks the moment the match kicks off — you can freely edit your squad, budget and captain choices any time before then.
Right up until kickoff, you can swap players in and out, rebalance your 100-credit budget, and change your captain or vice-captain as many times as you like. Once the referee blows the first whistle, the team is locked and starts scoring from that point in real time.
This is deliberate — it keeps the game fair, since no one can react to in-match events (an early red card, an injury, a goal) after the fact. Set your team with your best pre-match read on team news and form.
