The captain math at IPL Fantasy Club uses 5 factors: venue split (last 5 matches at the venue), weather (DLS-adjusted targets if rain is forecast), toss (bat-first vs chase win %), head-to-head (specific matchup history), and pitch (turner, seamer, flat, slow). Each factor contributes 20% to the projection.
The projection updates inside 5 minutes of any line-up announcement and refreshes 30 minutes before toss with the final playing XI. Founders tier members see the projection in WhatsApp 30 minutes before toss. Insider and Trial Pass members see the projection in their dashboard.
