How We Rate Each Player
Our Value Score (0–100) is calculated from historical IPL performance: batting average, strike rate, economy rate, wickets taken, and impact on team results over the last three seasons. A score of 70+ at the auction price earns a BARGAIN verdict. Between 40–70 is FAIR VALUE. Below 40 is OVERPAID. Retained players are scored against their retention fee. All data reflects the IPL 2026 auction and player form as of March 2026.
