Matchups

Players — role reads, last-six-innings form, and where each name sits inside the captain matrix.

Player11 tracks player form across the IPL, international T20s, and the domestic T20 circuit. Each player card shows the role, last-six-innings strike rate, current credit value, and where they sit inside the captain matrix.

Top-order batsmen

The top-order batsmen on Player11's desk are Rohit Sharma (11.0 cr, MI), Virat Kohli (10.5 cr, RCB), Shubman Gill (10.5 cr, GT), and Yashasvi Jaiswal (10.0 cr, RR). The captain badge usually sits with one of these four on a flat-track fixture.

All-rounders

The all-rounder column is the highest-floor column on the salary cap desk. Jadeja at 9.5 cr (CSK), Pandya at 9.5 cr (MI), and Maxwell at 9.0 cr (RCB) are the steady reads. The differential plays live in the second tier — Nitish Reddy, Abdul Samad, Shashank Singh.

Wicketkeepers

Wicketkeepers are sorted into three tiers: top-tier (Pant, Rahul), middle-tier (Samson, Karthik), differential (Ishan Kishan, Jitesh Sharma). The keeper slot holds one credit slot of budget, and the captain badge rarely carries here unless the keeper is also the batting anchor.

Bowlers

The pace attack on Player11's captain matrix is led by Bumrah at 10.0 cr (MI), Shami at 9.0 cr (SRH), and Siraj at 9.0 cr (RCB). The spin column is led by Kuldeep Yadav at 8.5 cr (DC) and Bishnoi at 8.5 cr (RR).

FAQ — Players

How often are player cards updated? Player11's desk refreshes each card weekly, and after every match day.

Which players are differentials? Player11 marks a pick as a differential when ownership is estimated below 25% across the major leagues.

How Player11 scores each player

Player11's player cards publish four signals — role, last-six-innings strike rate, current credit value, and captain-matrix position. The role is one of batsman, wicketkeeper, all-rounder, or bowler. The strike-rate signal is the cleanest form indicator across the IPL, international T20s, and the domestic T20 circuit. The credit value is the platform's current cap. The captain-matrix position is a 1-to-6 ranking updated each match week.

The player cards update weekly during the IPL and internationally. The card rank is independent of the platform's own projection — the desk's read focuses on consistency over six innings, not a single match spike. Player11 keeps a tier reading inside each role column so a reader can sort captain candidates and differential picks in seconds.

How to read the player page

Each player card includes the role, a brief reading on form and fixture, and the captain-matrix position. Tier 1 reads are the strongest reads of the week; Tier 2 reads are the second tier; Tier 3 reads are the differential picks. Inside each tier, the player with the strongest form and the strongest fixture takes the top spot. Player11 keeps the same tier system across all hubs so the reading is consistent across the desk.

Reading value-per-credit

Value-per-credit is the cleanest cross-platform read on any player card. A 10.5 cr player who averages 60 fantasy points is a 5.7 points-per-credit read. A 9.0 cr player who averages 50 fantasy points is a 5.5 points-per-credit read. The 10.5 cr player is the higher value read even though he costs more — the cap math prefers points-per-credit over absolute credit cost.

Player11 publishes a points-per-credit table on the player pages. The table refreshes after every match. Reading the table tells you which players carry value for the cap, not just which players carry ceiling. Value-per-credit is the silent column that decides tie-breaks in head-to-head formats.

Reading the player grid

The player grid sorts by role, by tier, and by captain-matrix position. Tier 1 reads are the strongest reads of the week; Tier 2 reads are the second tier; Tier 3 reads are the differential picks. Inside each tier, the player with the strongest form and the strongest fixture takes the top spot.

The grid is sortable by captain-matrix position, by form, by fixture, and by credit. Sort by captain-matrix position for captain reads; sort by form for differential reads; sort by fixture for matchup reads.
