Methodology

Player11's editorial methodology follows three rules. First, the desk reads the form window (last-six-innings strike rate) before any other signal. Second, the desk reads the fixture geometry (venue, toss tendency, dew reading) before the form window. Third, the desk reads the platform's contest format (league, head-to-head, mega league) before the fixture geometry. The captain matrix is published once all three signals are read.

The methodology is published openly. Readers who want to follow the desk's reads on a fixture-by-fixture basis can subscribe to the weekly captain matrix email or to the live matches desk updates.
