Data note. IPL stats are calculated from ball-by-ball records of every IPL match from 2008 to 2026 published by Cricsheet (ODC-BY licence). A handful of washed-out games have no ball-by-ball record, so totals can differ slightly from official figures. Prices are current contract values, not 2027 retention fees.
