???? The Six-Hitting Machines

Some players don’t just bat—they launch rockets. Whether it’s Chris Gayle’s 175* or Andre Russell’s 12-ball 50s, the IPL has seen some insane six-hitting streaks.

As a fantasy player, here’s what this means for you:

Always keep an eye on the big hitters in small stadiums.
Check how certain players perform at specific venues—some stadiums are six-paradises.
Pick players in form. A couple of sixes in one match? That could be the start of something big.

???? Strikes That Changed the Game

The fastest fifties, centuries under pressure, and late-order explosions all fall under this category. These are the moments that turn the tide in fantasy contests too.

When picking your Vision11 squad:

Use strike rates to your advantage—players who score quick are rewarded well in fantasy points.
Look out for finishers. A strong performance in the death overs can rack up points quickly.
Consider impact players who may not open the innings but can change the game in just a few balls.

????‍♂️ Speed Kills (in the Best Way)

We're not just talking about running between the wickets. We're talking about fastest deliveries, fastest centuries, and lightning-fast reflexes. These moments show who's sharp, who's in form, and who could explode in the next match.

Your takeaway as a fantasy cricket player?

Track bowlers delivering at top speeds—they often get key wickets or dot-ball points.
Watch out for fielders known for run-outs or catches. Yes, fantasy points are awarded for fielding brilliance too!

And yes, you guessed it—Vision11 tracks it all.

???? How to Use IPL Records to Win Big

You don’t need to be a stats nerd to benefit from records. Just a bit of smart observation and timing. Here’s a simple formula:

Look back at recent records.
Analyze trends – is a player getting hot or going cold?
Balance your team with consistent scorers and wild-card picks.
