xFP Player Profile

Jasprit Bumrah — model view

The CricJosh expected-fantasy-points engine publishes a per-player vector: point estimate, 80% prediction band, captaincy multiplier, venue tilt, and a sample-size flag. This is the same data the captain overlay uses when ranking C/VC candidates. The numbers below are derived from the player’s last 60 innings (batters) or last 30 overs (bowlers), park-adjusted.

How to read these numbers

The xFP point estimate is the model’s best guess at this player’s fantasy-points-per-match under average conditions. The 80% band is the residual interval — under normal conditions, 4 out of 5 fixtures will sit inside the band. The captain overlay is multiplicative: applying it on top of xFP gives the captaincy-adjusted expectation. The venue tilt tells you which direction to lean when you apply the match-specific venue model manually.

Caveat

These outputs are part of a model-produced vector. CricJosh.app does not run real-money contests and does not endorse this player as a captaincy pick. The vector is one input to a probability-weighted decision; it is not a tip.
