The blog verticals are organised by topic. The fantasy guides vertical covers evergreen strategy; the IPL news vertical covers breaking coverage. Both verticals carry weekly posts during the IPL season.

How the verticals are organised

The fantasy guides vertical is organised by decision point. Each guide is built around a specific fantasy decision — captaincy, points system, bonus conversion, all-rounder value, death-overs bowling. The vertical is the place to start if you are new to fantasy cricket.

The IPL news vertical is organised by event. Each post is built around a specific news event — injury, schedule, top 20, auction, toss. The vertical is the fastest way to track the IPL.

Section 01

About this vertical

The Fantasy Guides vertical is updated weekly. Each post links to a primary source — match record, scorecard, weather feed, or named analyst note.

The fantasy guides vertical is the desk's evergreen coverage of fantasy cricket strategy. The vertical covers the decisions that repeat every match — captaincy, XI construction, points system, bonus conversion, all-rounder value, death-overs bowling.

Each guide is built around a specific decision point. The guides are practical, not theoretical. The desk recommends applying the framework in the order described in each guide; skipping a step degrades the output.

Featured fantasy guide

The featured guide this week is the top 10 captain picks post. The guide walks through the top 10 captain candidates for the season with the four inputs — form, venue, matchup, toss — behind each pick.

The fantasy guides vertical is updated weekly. Each weekly update covers the form index movers, the venue bias shifts and any rule changes by the league. The update cadence is the same during the IPL season and during the off-season.

The vertical pairs naturally with the hubs — Fantasy Tips, IPL Fantasy Cricket and IPL 2026. The three together cover the complete fantasy strategy stack.

Blog · what to read first

A reading order for new readers of the IPL Super Contest blog.

1. Start with the points system

Before you pick a captain, you need to know how points work. The points system is the rulebook — every captain pick is a bet on which scoring events will fire. Read the points system explained post end-to-end. It will take 8 minutes and it will reshape how you read form.

2. Then the captain picks framework

Captaincy is where fantasy is won and lost. The 2x multiplier means your captain is worth twice your best non-captain player. The captain picks post walks through the decision framework and the current top picks.

3. Then the all-rounder value index

All-rounders are the highest-points-per-credit asset in fantasy. The all-rounder value index ranks the current top picks by expected points per credit. Pair this with your captaincy decision.

4. Then the death-overs bowling stats

Death bowling is hard to find and easy to misprice. The death-overs bowling stats post surfaces the bowlers who actually concede under 8 runs per over in the final four.

5. Then the welcome bonus strategy

The welcome bonus is real money, but only if you understand rollover. The welcome bonus strategy post walks through the math and the optimal contest size to convert bonus to cash.

6. Then the live IPL news

Squad updates, injury news, toss news — the IPL news vertical keeps you current. Pair the news with the injury watch and top 20 players posts.

7. Then the schedule and the strategy

The IPL 2026 schedule post surfaces the venue-by-venue form, the back-to-back fixtures and the tournament-pattern angles. Use it to plan your bankroll across the 74-match season.

8. Then the auction analysis

The auction analysis post identifies which franchises over-paid, which picks are the bargain buys and which players to fade in early-season contests.

9. Then the toss-impact angle

Toss matters more than most new players realise. The toss impact post quantifies the captaincy shift between bat-first and chase-first, with venue-level numbers.
