The captain call that decides your contest
Three captain picks per match. Safe, differential, contrarian. Backed by 12-month form data, venue reads, dew percentages, and pitch behaviour patterns from Wankhede to Chinnaswamy to Chepauk.
Safe captain
Rishabh Pant at Delhi — averaging 58.4 across the last 12 innings at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, strike-rate 162, captain pick for 64% of all winning fantasy teams in head-to-head contests last season.
Differential captain
Suryakumar Yadav away from Wankhede — picked by less than 8% of teams, but his 360-degree shot range turns mid-innings collapses into match-winning cameos. The 1.5x vice-captain boost amplifies the swing.
Contrarian captain
Spin-bowling all-rounder at Chepauk — when wickets are flat and pacers are hit, Rashid Khan or Kuldeep Yadav becomes a 4-fer plus 30-run tail-end cameo that no other captain-pick slate is touching.
