Four ways to reach us

Reading questions

Reading questions — about an article, a chart, a captain matrix, a player profile — are answered within 48 hours during business days. The question and the published answer become part of the FAQ section on the affected article.

Editorial corrections

Editorial corrections — about an error in an article, a chart, or a captain matrix — are verified within 48 hours and published as a dated correction note on the affected article. The note is not deletable.

Source tips

Source tips — on squad updates, injuries, workload notes — are reviewed by the editor. We verify tips with at least one independent source before publishing. Anonymous tips are not published.

Partnership / press

Partnership inquiries that don't conflict with the desk's editorial independence are reviewed within a week. Press inquiries are routed to the editor. We do not run affiliate schemes with fantasy platforms.

How this page relates to the rest of the desk

The desk's coverage is interconnected

Every page on this site connects to the editorial graph — captain matrices link to predictions, predictions link to fantasy tips, fantasy tips link to player profiles, player profiles link to team desks, team desks link to venue reads. Reading the desk's coverage weekly keeps your calibration of the framework current.

This page is one node in the graph. When the inputs on this page change, the related coverage is updated. The change log is published in the editor's monthly note; readers can see the run of changes across the desk.

What to read next

From this page, the most useful next reads are: (1) the predictions hub for today's captain matrix; (2) the fantasy-tips hub for the decision framework; (3) the team desks for the squad-level reads; (4) the verification pages for safety guidance on third-party products.

Each of those is one click away from this page — the link is in the page footer, in the navigation bar, or in the related-coverage section of this page. Bookmark the desk-level landing pages for fast access; bookmark the article-level pages for deep reads.

Editor note

How an editor works this page

1

Inputs

The editor reads every input before the page publishes. Inputs include public sources, the desk's previous reads, and any source-tip submissions. The editor labels every input as confirmed, reported, or projected.

2

Verification

The editor runs the verification ladder on every claim. Confirmed (verified, on the record), reported (single-source, on the record), projected (analyst inference), editorial lean (weighted view across inputs).

3

Read

The editor writes the desk's read with a confidence tag (high, moderate, cautious, no call). The confidence tag is published at the top of the read; readers can size their own calls against the tag.

4

Audit

The editor signs off on the captain matrix and the audit ladder. The audit ladder feeds the desk confidence score; the score is published quarterly with its limitations named.

Limitations

What this desk cannot do

Outcome certainty

The desk cannot guarantee fantasy outcomes. Fantasy is uncertain by nature; the desk's reads are probabilities, not certainties. We label every read with a confidence tag and never use certainty language.

Source limitation

The desk is limited to public sources. We don't have access to private net sessions, undisclosed injuries, or unreleased squad information. When the inputs are not public, the read is held.

Editorial bias

The desk writes with humans and carries implicit biases. We minimise bias by anchoring to named inputs and a named verification ladder. We publish the editor's monthly note so readers can see the bias and the track record.

Time lag

A read at 09:00 IST may be obsolete by 17:00 IST. The desk updates the captain matrix as soon as the inputs change. Freshness of any single page is bounded by the freshness of the inputs it depends on.

Reading cadence

How often to read this page

A

Daily readers

If you build fantasy teams daily, this page is in your morning reading. The captain matrix updates throughout the day; reading it before locking your team is the highest-leverage single action you can take.

B

Weekly readers

If you build fantasy teams weekly, this page anchors your week. The desk publishes weekly recaps that summarise the reads from the previous seven days. The recap is the cheapest way to catch up if you missed the week.

C

Tournament readers

If you read for tournament-level context, this page is one node in the editorial graph. The desk's quarterly audit aggregates the reads across the whole season; the publication is on the desk dashboard.

D

Casual readers

If you read occasionally, this page is the entry point to the desk. Bookmark the homepage or the predictions hub; come back when there's a specific question. The desk's coverage is free to read at any time.

Editorial commitment

What this page commits to the reader

Confirmation

Every claim on this page is labelled confirmed, reported or projected. We do not publish composite statements without naming the data window; we do not publish any framing that implies certainty without verification.

Correction

If this page is wrong, the correction is published at the top with a dated note. The note explains what changed, when, and why. Corrections are not deletable.

Verification

Every input on this page is cross-checked against at least one independent source where possible. Single-source stories are tagged reported; we do not publish anonymous tips.

Editor

An editor reads this page before publication. The editor signs off on the captain matrix, the audit ladder, and the verification tags. The editor's note is published monthly.

Where to read more

Five follow-on reads from this page

Team reads

Every IPL franchise has a dedicated desk with squad-shape, role-question, captaincy and venue reads. The team desks are the deepest single resource on the desk — start there when you want to read about a specific franchise.

Player profiles

Player profiles break form into six phase windows — powerplay, middle, death, matchup, second innings and venue. The captain matrix on each profile is updated after every match and feeds the captain pool on the next fixture.

Verification

The verification pages cover app, download, login, bonus, referral, withdrawal and responsible play. They exist to help readers verify any third-party product they consider using — and to walk away from any product that does not verify.

Predictions

The predictions hub is where pre-toss frames, post-toss updates, captain matrices and post-match audits are published for every fixture. The hub is the most-read section of the desk.

Editor's note

The monthly editor's note aggregates corrections, source patterns, audit deltas and the desk confidence score for the previous month. Reading the note keeps your calibration of the desk current across the season.

One more thing

How the desk treats unverified claims

The desk treats unverified claims with care. An unverified claim is published as reported, not confirmed, with the source named where possible. If the source later contradicts itself, the desk publishes a correction note. If the source is anonymous, the claim is not published on this site. The rule is the same for every beat: source-named, verification-tagged, dated.
