IPL 2014 player ranking

We have uploaded the player ranking for the just concluded seventh season of Indian Premier League on the IPL player ranking page. On that page, you can also find the respective player rankings for all the previous seasons of IPL as well.You can find the detailed method for computing the player ranks in one of the previous blog posts. We have also put a dollar value on the player performances this season.

The most valuable player as per our ranking methodology comes out to be Robin Uthappa, whose performance was worth around $634K (he was purchased for $833K during this year’s IPL player auction). The best bargain of this season? Karanveer Singh of Kings XI Punjab was purchased for just $16K, but his performance was worth almost $357K this season. The biggest bust of the season was Dinesh Karthik, to whom Delhi Daredevils paid more than $2 MM this season, but whose performance was actually in negative $162K.
