Each new user gets the hang of something other than what's expected each season, each match. Everyone makes their own set of tips and tricks which will work for them.
But with so many users around, it is arduous to be at the top of the ranks. So what does it take to stand out from the crowd? -Think out of the box.
This article isn't about the tips and tricks for IPL fantasy. This article is about how you should utilize your psyche in playing the IPL fantasy.
This article is not about player performances, but how you should perform as IPL fantasy user.

I have been playing IPL fantasy for many seasons and I cherish it. This is the mind rules you should set according to my experiences:
#1 Do something different
Let`s say the IPL season has achieved its midway check with half of the matches played. Now you as a fantasy user find yourself somewhere in the middle of the ranks. Everyone still keeps on picking the usual picks, which most of the users pick. - Don`t do that.
Picking the normal and regular players won`t take you at best of the rankings. Because when your player performs, he performs for 80% of users. So everyone gets the points and you remain in the same position in ranks.
By playing the common picks, you won`t go much down the positions, yet will even not rise much. What's more, it does not matter whether your rank is 30,000 or 50,000.
Try picking players which no one will expect to perform. If your unexpected picks perform, you will get extra points for that match compared to most of the users.
IPL is plenary of surprises. You don`t realize what will happen and any surprising player can play the match of his life. Don't be hesitant to bet
And trust me, it is the best feeling. You will sit tight for the scores to update and you will see yourself move over the leader-board.
